Energy Efficiency
COP: tested under nominal conditions: 4.0 at 15°C / 2.8 at 10°C / 2.16 at 0°C / 2.15 at -1,5°C / 2.1 at -10°C / 2.0 at -15°C / 1.7 at -20°CEnergy efficiency measures: CO2 heat pump is capable of 100% recycling. Increasing the range of the electric bus by up to 60%.
The savings potential in service costs is around 70%. The CO2 heat pump produces just over 4,000kg of CO2e emissions, compared with more than 9,000kg of CO2e emissions for a heat pump featuring R-134a plus electric heater.
