The planned frst district cooling system includes production
and distribution of district cooling based on an integrated production of cooling from: Free cooling and pre-cooling (seawater) Absorption cooling (based on steam) Compressor-based cooling A study has shown that such a combination will be favourable. The energy fows in the system can be seen in table 1. These data refects the optimal control strategy for the system. Table 1: District cooling system - energy balance. District cooling - a hot issue District cooling has become a hot issue in Denmark. in copen- hagen, customers are ready for it. hence, copenhagen energy is actively seeking ways of providing district cooling and has joined the european project summerheat. Various district heating companies have made feasibility studies and aim at establishing district cooling systems, but an adequate legal framework is lacking. Seventeen potential district cooling customers have been identifed having a cooling demand of 15.3 MW in total. Five ma- jor customers all have existing central cooling plants and rep- resent 80% of the total demand identifed. The main technical design parameters are shown in table 2. The installation of the heat exchanger allows for three different modes of operation as shown in table 3.

Building owners and planners will be addressed by a guideline providing comprehensive information about the application of district cooling. This work comprises in-depth market analysis of both the sup- plying technologies and the demand side. Feasibility studies will be carried out demonstrating advantages of district cooling. In addition, the project encompasses targeted development and improvement of framework conditions, information dissemina- tion and other supportive actions to develop the market for district cooling. District cooling anD alternatiVes Table 4 provides an overview of specifc plant data and charac- teristics applicable to the fve different ways of providing cool- ing that have been compared in the SummerHeat project. Gen- eralised fgures have been used in the table, except for the KE plant, where design data for the proposed system are shown. It can be seen that there is a great difference between the ratios (Design capacity / Capacity demand), as the centralised district cooling plants beneft from less coincidence between the maximum demands at the different customers (ratio: 0.85). For the distributed cooling production, which is also the present situation, this ratio has been found to be approxi- mately 1.2, refecting that the systems have a maximum capac- ity of 1.2 times the dimensional cooling demand. Consequently, this is refected in the number of operation hours. bUilDing oWners anD real estate managers are keen to connect to District cooling Although it is not yet possible to connect to a district cool- ing grid, Copenhagen Energy experiences a growing interest in district cooling from potential customers in the Copenhagen area. District cooling has caught the attention of many own- ers of commercial buildings and offce buildings, as well as real estate managers that are now addressing Copenhagen Energy to investigate their opportunity to become district cooling customers. The main motivation for the potential customers is a better overall economy of a district cooling system com- pared to the existing compressor-based chillers: Need for refurbishment of existing compressor-based cooling systems New regulation abandoning HFC refrigerants Saved maintenance costs Less trouble Reasonable low price on district cooling copenhagen energy is taking part in the eU proJect sUmmerheat The SummerHeat project puts emphasis on increased use of excess heat from CHP plants and incineration plants during the summer, while at the same time reducing the consumption of electricity for cooling in the commercial sectors. In the course of the project, similar initiatives on district cooling are taken in Vienna, Berlin, Grenoble, Prague and Copenhagen.

From an energy and environmental point of view, the use of primary energy is the focal issue, when comparing the differ- ent cooling options. Therefore the systems performances are compared using Primary Resource Factors. The value of the PRF for a specifc heating or cooling system defnes the ratio between net fossil energy consumption and heating or cooling energy delivered to the building. Hence, the CO2 emissions are directly linked to the PRFs. www.dbdh.dk p _ 11 J o U r n a l n 0 . 3 / 2 0 0 7 In many traditional applications, the consumption of fossil fuel is higher than heating or cooling delivered to the building re- fecting energy effciency less than one and giving a PRF higher than one. If the value is less than one, the total consumption of non-renewable energy is less than the energy delivered to the building. Very environmentally effcient heating and cool- ing systems have a PRF close to zero, meaning that heating or cooling only induce a small consumption of non-renewable energy sources. The approach used is based on the European standard prEN 15316-4-5 and on outputs of the European project ECOHEAT- COOL (see project description and output at the Euroheat and Power website: http://www.euroheat.org/ecoheatcool/ ). PRFs have been derived for the different systems as shown in fgure 1. prf ValUe comparison prf central absortion cooling unit Decentralised absortion cooling centralised compressor unit Decentralised compressor units ke plant 0.00 0.20 0.40 0.60 0.80 1.00 1.20 CHP tnrrrifr6vfirrviv6urf wrsfc6vritcrirtficfvtsuissi6c6uvtv v6sxiiorvrj175,ox-2620Ainrvfsiuo f+4543660366vrxs vrxs.oxwww.vrxs.ox District cooling Uses less fossil energy Compared with the alternatives, district cooling allows for us- ing less primary energy. The standard COP (Coeffcient of Performance) cannot be used for comparison between the systems, due to the dif- ferent meaning of the COP for compressor-based units and absorption cooling units, and because the focal issue is con- sumption of fossil energy. Thus, for comparison, a COP based on the PRF values has been developed, hence embedding due emphasis on the input of primary fossil energy. The use of the COP PRF shows that the KE plant - having a COP PRF
of 3.5 - is most effcient compared with the other solutions, as seen in fgure 2 showing a comparison of the fve different cooling systems as regards the COP based on consumption of fossil energy.

Copenhagen Energy and other district heating companies have already conducted feasibility studies on dis- trict cooling systems and are now seeking ways of implement- ing this technology. At the moment this is far from straight forward, as Copenha- gen Energy, along with other municipally owned district heating companies, have experienced that they are not allowed to operate district cooling systems under the current Danish legislative framework. As a con- sequence, the legislative framework is now under investigation and most likely a new framework will be estab- lished forming the basis for operation of municipally owned district cooling enterprises in Denmark. The European project SUMMERHEAT project has obtained fnancial sup- port from the Intelligent Energy Eu- rope programme.

Not only does the formation of corrosion harm the systems; but as little as just one millimetre of scale causes an increased energy consumption of approx 10%. Thus the overall operation costs as well as the lifetime of the systems will improve considerably when proper water treatment is applied.
