8. A tidal hydropower plant located close to a small city has a power of 150 [MW] and can potentially deliver 60 [GWh] electricity annually to the city. The city consists of 10.000 houses with each an annual electricity demand of 3000 [kWh] and a heating demand of 10000 [kWh]. All houses are equipped with a gas combustion boiler with an efficiency of 0.9 on HHV. The CO2-eq emissions of the boiler are 0.2 [kg] CO2-eq/kWh HHV. How much CO2 will be saved if the household switches to heat pumps with SCOP 4 and the electricity is delivered by the hydropower plant (chose the closest value to your result)? (multiple choice, one answer) 0 ton CO2-eq 15400 ton CO2 eq 22200 ton CO2 eq

![8. CO2 savings
8. A tidal hydropower plant located close to a small city has a power of 150 [MW] and can potentially deliver 60
[GWh] electricity annually to the city. The city consists of 10.000 houses with each an annual electricity
demand of 3000 [kWh] and a heating demand of 10000 [kWh]. All houses are equipped with a gas combustion
boiler with an efficiency of 0.9 on HHV. The CO2-eq emissions of the boiler are 0.2 [kg] CO2-eq/kWh HHV.
How much CO2 will be saved if the household switches to heat pumps with SCOP 4 and the electricity is
delivered by the hydropower plant (chose the closest value to your result)? (multiple choice, one answer)
0 ton CO2-eq
