PropSafe Disruptive design innovation for safe and lower cost implementation of the alternative to the ozone-depleting gases in the heat pump heating and cooling systems
Coordinator: DOO ZA PROIZVODNJU I USLUGE ALFA KLIMA KNJAZENAC (RS)
Heat pumps are most energy efficient and least polluting systems for heating, cooling and drying. However, HFC gases used in heat pumps contribute to global warming by trapping heat radiating off the Earth. Global negotiations to eliminate them have concluded only in October 2016 in Kigali. 150 nations agreed to stop selling new HFC based equipment from 2019. Global challenge is to find a suitable replacement for HFC by 2019. R290 is most suitable replacement gas for home and light commercial use as it can be used in the existing, most common, R22 mechanical equipment. However, being flammabl…
About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)
Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.
Co-funding: the European Union contributes €50k toward a total project budget of €71k — a funding rate of 70%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 0.5 years from 2017-06-01 to 2017-11-30.
