The present study has been conducted economic analysis through actual operation of EHP and GHP which are installed at the same building of an university Cost items, such as initial cost, annual energy cost and maintenance cost of each system are considered to analyze LCC and economical efficiency is compared. The initial cost is considered on the basis of actual costs, and annual energy cost is converted into the cost after measuring electricity and gas consumption a day. LCC applied present value method is used to assess economical efficiency of both them. Variables used to LCC analysis are electricity cost escalation rate, natural gas cost escalation rate, interest rate, and service lives and when each of them are 4%, 2%, 8%, and 20 years, results of analysis short that EHP(148,257,306 won) is 8.05%(12,981,990 won) more profitable than GHP(161,239,295 won).

The present study has been conducted economic analysis through actual operation of electric heat pump (EHP) and gas engine driven heat pump (GHP) which are installed at the same building in the university. Cost items, such as initial cost, annual energy cost and maintenance cost of each system are considered to analyze life cycle cost (LCC) and economical efficiencies are compared. The initial cost is considered on the basis of actual cost, and annual energy cost is converted into the cost after measuring electricity and gas consumption a day LCC applied present value method is used to assess economical profit of both of them. Variables used to LCC analysis are electricity cost escalation rate, natural gas cost escalation rate, interest rate, and service lives when each of them are 4%, 2%, 8%, and 20 years. The result shows that EHP (148,257,306 won) is more profitable than GHP (161,239,296 won) by 8.05% (12,981,990 won).

가스구동 흡수식 시스템은 인류와 환경에 여러 가지 유익을 가져다준다. 첫째, 시스템의 고효율에 따른 매력적인 경제성을 제공하고, 둘째 천연가스의 사용으로 인하여 여름철 피크 전력소요(peak electric demand)를 완화하고, 셋째 이산화탄소 ($CO_2$)의 발생을 감소시킴으로써 지구 온난화 현상을 완화한다 실제로 가스구동 흡수식 시스템으로부터의 $CO_2$발생량은 증기보일러를 사용하는 전기구동 냉동기에 비하여 85% 수준인 것으로 보고되었다(Suzuki 등). 넷째로 암모니아 및 물과 같은 환경 친화적인 냉매들을 사용함으로서 오존층을 파괴하는 Chlorofluorocarbon(CFC) 및 Hydrochlorofluorocarbon(FCFC)계 냉매들을 대체할 수 있는 이점이 있다.
