Research Project to Evaluate Air Source Heat Pump Performance at 4,128 m in Sumbay, Peru

An ongoing project in Sumbay, Peru, is focused on installing and evaluating an air-source heat pump at an altitude of 4,128 m. This initiative aims to address the challenges of using air source heat pumps in high-altitude environments, including cost, electricity access, and performance degradation. The primary objective is to evaluate and enhance existing predictive models for the heating performance of these systems, ultimately leading to improved designs and better customer satisfaction in remote regions.
