Heat and cold supply system’s energy efficiency improvement in “AYB” high school of “AYB Learning Hub” foundation

“AYB” high school of “AYB Learning Hub” foundation applied to the UNDP-GEF project for expertise and assessment of the high school’s heat and cold supply system. The Project specialists studied the designed solutions and proposed to revise cold supply principle and use heat pumps that could provide for basic energy loadings of heating and input ventilation also. Due to using thermal pumps for heating purposes, annual savings of natural gas reach about 37.5 thousand nm³, equivalent to 3.45 million AMD at the current fuel tariffs. Due to saving of primary energy, annual reduction of greenhouse gases emissions reaches 70,5 t CO₂ equivalent.
