A heat pump is an electric-powered system that uses heat from the air or ground for hot water or heating. As there is a substantial upfront cost associated with heat pumps - even though there is a ...

The UK’s heat decarbonisation journey is at risk of stalling. Despite ambitious targets to install 600,000 heat pumps annually by 2028, fewer than 100,000 were installed in 2024. The pace isn’t fast ...

Two four-stage heat pumps are now being manufactured for the geothermal district heating project in Hamburg-Wilhelmsburg, ...

The simulation of the heat pump and PV system provides dozens of simulation results (data series) on an hourly basis. In GeoT*SOL 2023 , these can now be displayed and evaluated as dynamic ...

Two new Michigan Tech studies show how heating with electric heat pumps is good for the environment — and the Upper Peninsula’s wallet, especially when paired with solar energy. Skip to page content ...

A research group led by the Technical University of Denmark has analyzed how booster heat pumps may effectively improve the performance of ultra-low temperature district heating networks in colder ...

The new law effectively will ban new installations of oil and gas heating systems in the coming years in favor of heat pumps that rely largely on renewable energy. It’s main advocate within Germany’s ...
