Procurement chain management of heat pump for industrial and residential heating

The thesis is devoted to theory research of new generation heat pumps and various approaches of procurement chain management. Currently, the world is trying to prevent climate change by applying different technologies to reduce global gas emissions and energy consumption. Heat pumps provide clean heat production with efficient electricity use, which led to environmental and economic advantages. A comprehensive study was carried out using a literature review and real examples. Methods and solutions in the management of the procurement chain and the evaluation of suppliers have been reviewed and modified for heat pump production. The market was also assessed, and future business models for technology deployment were developed. The key finding is represented in the form of a comprehensive overview of the heat pump market, a list of potential suppliers of heat pump components, and methods for evaluating supplier performance
