摘要:The article presents the assessment of the environmental impact
of 9 variants of building heat supply for heating purposes. The building
energy standards and the main primary energy carriers being in use in
Poland were taken as input data. The subject of analysis was a single-family
house characterized by a utility energy demand of 47 kWh/(m2
year).
An environmental impact analysis was made using the specification for
LCA in damage categories encompassing human health, ecosystem quality
and natural resources depletion. From the obtained results it has been
found that coal-based technologies in Poland's building energy supply
systems are capable of reducing the noxious environmental impact.
An example of such a system is the effective heat distribution network with
a coal-based cogeneration energy source. From the point of view of radical
low emission reduction, an interesting solution is the effective heat
distribution network with a gas-based cogeneration energy source.
Nevertheless, forecasts about the development of renewable energy source
installations in Poland indicate that a significant role in building heat
supply systems will be played by solar systems and geothermal systems
using heat pumps. Achieving the environmental acceptance of heat pumps
in Poland's conditions requires a decisive intensification of efforts to
increase the share of renewable energy sources in electric energy
generation processes in the central electric power system and in local and
individual systems, as well as the continuation of the processes of thermal
insulation of already existing buildings.
