RETScreen Heat Pump Model

The RETScreen SoftwareHeat Pump Modelcan be used worldwide to evaluate the energy production and savings, costs, emission reductions, financial viability and risk for heat pump projects, ranging in size from air-source heat pump (ASHP) networks in commercial and institutional buildings, to horizontal ground-coupled heat pumps (GCHP) to heat and/or cool space and/or processes in institutional buildings and industrial facilities, to combined heating and cooling using vertical boreholes for residential, commercial and institutional buildings and industrial facilities, to open loop or standing well groundwater heat pumps (GWHP) for residential systems. In addition, both the size and cost of the ground heat exchanger can be calculated using a convenientGround heat exchanger tool. The software (available in mu
