IEA Heat Pumping Technologies (HPT)
The IEA Heat Pump Technologies programme develops and disseminates objective and balanced information on heat pumps, refrigeration technologies and air conditioning with the aim of exploiting the environmentally relevant and energetic potential of these technologies. This programme includes joint research projects, workshops, conferences and an information service (IEA Heat Pump Centre).
IEA AFC: Technology Collaboration Programme on Advanced Fuel Cells
In the AFC TCP, both technology-oriented R&D activities (polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells, solid oxide fuel cells, electrolysers) as well as analysis to implement fuel cells in commercial applications (stationary and mobile applications) are carried-out. System investigations and modelling complement the activities of this TCP.
IEA ES Task 48: Thermal Energy Storage Materials
To store heat with the capacity, energy density, and power required for different applications, innovative materials are needed. In IEA ES Task 48, the focus is on materials that can store heat in various ways – through phase changes or chemical reactions. A wide range of materials is being studied and tested to determine how suitable they are for use in thermal energy storage systems.
IEA Energy Storage (ES)
The aim of the IEA Energy Storage (ES) Technology Programme is to enable integrated research, development, implementation and integration of energy storage technologies in order to optimise the energy efficiency of all types of energy systems and to promote the use of renewable energy sources instead of fossil fuels.
IEA AMT Task 5: Tire and Brake Emissions (TiBrakE)
Due to the upcoming Euro 7 legislation, non-exhaust particle emissions are becoming more prominent. The aim of the task is to use findings from international projects, and derive harmonised and clearly defined measures from previously fragmented activities. This should lead to greater acceptance of national approaches to measuring tyre and brake wear and increased awareness of proposed solutions.
Co-Operative Programme on Advanced Materials for Transportation Applications (AMT)
The AMT Technology Programme (AMT-TCP) focuses on creating innovations in material technologies to increase energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions to allow global warming mitigation.
IEA HPT Annex 59: Heat Pumps for Drying Processes
Drying processes are highly energy-intensive and widespread in industry and commerce as well as in households in various forms. In this project, the potential for energy savings in drying processes in various applications will be investigated, which can be tapped through the use of heat pumps and made available to the relevant target groups in the form of guidelines, data, etc.
