Zhengkou Middle School and Family Building Thermal Operation Project

Project Background

Located in Gucheng County, Hengshui City, Hebei Province, the Old City Zhengkou Middle School and its family building cover an area of 254 mu, 190 mu of teaching area and more than 95000 square meters of building area. The building area of the family building is about 45000 square meters. The original heating mode is gas-fired boiler, which has high operating costs and operates in different periods of time throughout the day. The heating is not continuous, and the room temperature in the heating season cannot meet the standard, which has caused great problems for teachers and students at school and residents in the family building.

In order to effectively solve the current heating situation of high energy consumption, high cost, poor effect and low comfort, and actively respond to China's 30 · 60 dual carbon strategic goal, Zhengkou Middle School introduced Kcalin STS efficient air source heat pump units to achieve clean energy centralized heating for the campus and family buildings.

The project is equipped with 51 Kcalin STS high-efficiency air source heat pump units with the model of KLKQ-STS/S-90/24 (I) R3, which will be completed and put into operation in November 2021 to achieve continuous and stable heat supply in winter, and the indoor temperature will not be lower than 18 ℃.

Note:

1. Energy price: 0.50 yuan/kWh; The gas price is 3.5 yuan/m3; The calorific value of gas is 35.1MJ/kg; Operation time in winter is 120 days;

2. According to the Accounting Methods and Reporting Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Emissions of Enterprises Power Generation Facilities (HBQ [2021] No. 9), the emission factor of the national grid is 0.5810tCO2/MWh. 1.88kgCO2/Nm for natural gas ³。

1) Energy saving

The operating cost of the original gas-fired boiler heating system is 28.7 yuan/(m2 · heating season) (the natural gas price is 3.5 yuan/m ³）， After the transformation, the operating cost of the air source heat pump heating system is 10.7 yuan/(m2 · heating season) (the electricity price is 0.50 yuan/KWh). Compared with the original system, the annual operating cost is reduced by 18.0 yuan/(m2 · heating season), saving 62.7% of the operating cost.

2) Environmental protection and emission reduction

CO2 emissions are calculated based on the national average carbon emission coefficient of 0.592 kg CO2/kWh per kilowatt hour in 2018, which is 21.8% less than that before the transformation. Air pollutant emission: after the transformation, the air pollutant emission of the heat pump heating system on the site is zero, the indirect NOx emission is 70.4% less than that of the gas boiler before the transformation, and the PM2.5 emission is 11.7% less than that before the transformation.

6.Project Effect

Through the practical verification of the last complete heating season, Kcalin STS efficient air source heat pump has created a warm, comfortable, clean and environment-friendly working and living environment for users of Zhengkou Middle School and the family building, and has significantly reduced the operating costs of heating equipment, which confirms that the air source heat pump is an effective way to help the country achieve carbon reduction.
