How does the Zeroth Energy System address domestic hot water demand and reduce primary energy use in apartments?
Domestic hot water (DHW) is typically the dominant energy load in modern, well insulated buildings. Ambient loops, such as the Zeroth Energy System can significantly reduce the annual CO2 emissions and primary energy use of large residential properties in two ways:
Balancing the DHW demand and output
Heating water to the required temperature at the point of use
We will consider how the technology achieves these reductions and what the impact is on modern developments.
How can the Zeroth Energy System overcome the challenges of overheating in large residential developments?
The Zeroth Energy System uses an ambient loop designed to operate at 25oC. This reduces heat losses through the distribution network that could otherwise result in overheating occurring in corridors and communal spaces.
What is EN 14511?
EN 14511 sets out standardised performance and rating terms for air-conditioning units, heat pumps and liquid chilling packages that supply space heating or cooling. EN 14511 is used for a determination of the Coefficient of Performance (COP) that gauges the performance of a heat pump.
Humanising Policy: Exploring the Good and Bad of Electricity
Everything seems to be going electric: it started with our toothbrushes, then our cars and now increasingly our heating. At GDHV we speak a lot about the electrification of heat, but what does that really mean?
Why was GDHV's hot water heat pump solution used for the pioneering Project 80?
We recently published the first blog in our series on the ground breaking Project 80 by Midland Heart in Birmingham. This blog explains in more detail why a fully electric solution with a hot water heat pump by Dimplex at its heart was selected as one of the technologies to deliver the objective of the project - homes built to the Future Homes Standard, today.

Which technologies are the most viable to deliver the decarbonisation of heating?
To deliver the decarbonisation of heating, we should deploy a wide range of technologies that can help to eliminate the use of high carbon fossil fuels. Electric solutions, especially those that utilise renewable energy, offer a viable route to ensuring our homes are heated in a low carbon way. To successfully transfer to electrical infrastructures and make the necessary adjustments that bring us closer to achieving the UK’s 2050 net zero target, the industry will need a clear plan with achievable interim targets.
How can we achieve the 80% carbon reduction target with HVAC technology available now?
The best way to navigate any regulatory overhaul is to understand its impact on the specification of construction products and, significantly, how it will affect the people being asked to live in the low carbon dwellings of the future.
