Transformation of the electricity grid - challenges and solutions with energy storage

This two-day training course in refrigeration systems with carbon dioxide (CO2, R744) covers the basics of design, operation and maintenance of refrigeration systems with CO2. The training course combines theory and practice; the emphasis is placed on hands-on exercises of operating different CO2 based refrigeration systems mixed with high quality theory presentations, discussions and knowledge sharing among the course participants on their experiences with refrigeration systems and CO2 as a refrigerant.

This course provides in-depth knowledge on refrigeration and heat pump systems using ammonia as refrigerant. Through a mix of theory, plant inspections, and digital exercises, you will learn about the properties of ammonia, typical plant configurations including safety aspects and sizing of components.

Explore the possibilities of using large heat pumps for heat production in district heating systems and industrial plants. As a participant of this course, you will be introduced to the technical working principles of heat pumps, different heat pump types and technological potentials and limitations.
