The production classification and market situation of water chillers are introduced in this chapter. Some production and energy efficiency standards of water chiller are analyzed, including AHRI 551/591, ASHRAE 90.1, EN 14825, EN 14511, GB/T 18430.1, GB/T 25127.1, GB/T 25127.2, GB 19577, etc,. The performance assessment indicators in these standards are compared. A series of high energy efficiency technologies of water chillers are introduced, including new compressor technology, high-efficiency heat exchange technology, new refrigerants technology, system energy conservation technology, high temperature water chiller technology, and "water chiller + natural cold source" cooling technology in data center. Based on the application of these technologies, the component energy efficiency, unit energy efficiency, and system energy efficiency of water chillers will improve significantly.
