With the activities in Task 50, we aimed at improving the lighting refurbishment process in non-residential buildings in order to unleash energy saving potentials while at the same time improving lighting quality. This newsletter presents an overview on key results of IEA SHC Task 50 and provides reference to further information.

This newsletter presents the effort made in classifying Solar and Heat Pumps systems made by Task 44 / Annex 38. A uniform SHP system representation has been presented and a guide line in developing it is shown. This energy flow chart can be applied to any other space heating or DHW generation systems and a direct comparison can be derived. Finally, the framework for the performance figure calculation is presented.

This newsletter presents the status of the work of the SHC Task 44 / HPP Annex 38 or T44A38 work. The solar industry and the heat pump industry are the primary targets. The content reflects the activities along the course of the work and not necessarily the final conclusions that will be published in all deliverables at the end of the work duration (December 2013).
