Advanced active carbon fiber-NH₃ heat pumps and refrigerators with dual sources of energy supply (solar-gas, solar-electricity) were developed for providing space heating and cooling and sanitary hot water for buildings. The low-temperature sources of energy are ground water, soil, and air. The next generation of heat pumps includes combination of chemicals with an active carbon fiber to increase NH₃ absorption. The combination of a heat pipe and heat pumps solves the problem of ground heating in green houses using the heat of ground, ground hot waters, and solar energy flames with heat storage.
