Presentation of results

The field study's main purpose is to analyze heat pumps in real-life conditions. The project can be realized not least due to the support of private households as they agreed to have their heat pump systems instrumentally examined and so provide a basis for new research findings.

On this page, the Fraunhofer ISE publishes a monthly evaluation of the measured data and makes it available to the residents. The publication contains all substantial data concerned with the heat pump's efficiency. The evaluation is ordered by manufacturers and is available to the residents only. All projects highlighted in green are activated.

Thanks to the agreement between residents and heat pump manufacturers, the evaluation of heat pumps listed below is available for everyone; however, the results are anonymous. Besides information about the building and the heat pump system, the measured data is also visualized. The authentic and current data allows for a better understanding of the way heat pump technology works in real-life conditions.

Heat pumps which have been monitored during the recently completed study WP Monitor are marked grey. Those heat pumps which are currently monitored within the study WP Monitor Plus are marked green.
