Glede na to, da se uporaba energije v svetu in v Sloveniji veča ter da mnoga podjetja iščejo možnosti uporabe alternativnih virov energije, sem se odločil, da v diplomski nalogi predstavim možnosti uporabe obnovljivih virov energije v podjetju Rudnik Trbovlje-Hrastnik. Namen naloge je predstavitev uporabe geotermalne energije, pridobljene iz jamske vode, za potrebe ogrevanja in pripravo tople vode. V nalogi je predstavljen obstoječ sistem ogrevanja ter njegova nadgradnja z vključitvijo toplotne črpalke v izvedbi voda-voda. V sklepnem delu diplomske naloge so predstavljeni izračuni ekonomske upravičenosti investicije v sistem nadgradnje ogrevanja in priprave tople vode v podjetju Rudnik Trbovlje-Hrastnik.Considering the fact there is an increase of energy usage in the world and in Slovenia and that many companies are searching for the possibilities of alternative energy resources, I decided to present the option of use of renewable energy resources in the company Rudnik Trbovlje-Hrastnik.
