Unlocking Widescale Heat Pump Deployment in the UK: Heat Pump Association’s Landmark Report reveals path to greener future
T
he Heat Pump Association is proud to release its newest report, ‘Unlocking Widescale
Heat Pump Deployment in the UK’, providing a comprehensive roadmap and collection of policy recommendations for accelerating the adoption of heat pumps in the United Kingdom. As the UK Government considers
how to meet its legally binding net- zero emissions target by 2050, it is clear there is a critical need for highly effi cient and sustainable solutions in the heating sector. Heat pumps are emerging as the cornerstone of this transition, off ering extremely effi cient, low carbon alternatives to classic heating systems for both residential and commercial applications. Craig Dolan, chair of the Heat
Pump Association said: “As a low carbon solution, heat pumps can be more than three times more effi cient than fossil fuel boilers[1] and switching to heat pumps in the UK can reduce heating emissions by up to 75%, equivalent to all the territorial emissions of Denmark in 2021. This report is a call to action for stakeholders, policymakers and industry players to come together in making heat pump technology a cornerstone of the UK’s sustainable energy landscape.” Key Highlights of the report:
Comprehensive analysis: The report off ers a thorough examination of the current state of the heat pump industry in the UK, outlining existing barriers, opportunities, and the economic benefi ts of mass adoption. Policy Recommendations:
It provides a clear set of well- researched policy recommendations aimed at creating an environment conducive to widespread heat pump deployment. These recommendations are backed by extensive research and the expertise of HPA’s well-versed membership. Mark Wilkins, vice-chair of the Heat Pump Association said: “This is a fantastic report outlining a comprehensive set of policy recommendations which if implemented, would provide investors, manufacturers, installers and consumers with confi dence in the sector. We are confi dent that these insights will positively support policy development, propelling us towards a cleaner, greener tomorrow.”
