Stepping up to the decarbonisation challenge
T
he Heat Pump Association (HPA) has launched its vision report; ‘Delivering Net Zero:
A Roadmap for the Role of Heat Pumps’. The report outlines the heat pump industry’s commitment a nd readiness to step up to the
challenge of delivering the necessary decarbonisation of heat through the scaling up of heat pump deployment. T he industry’s eff orts to establish wide-scale deployment of heat pumps in the UK will be delivered through three key pillars:
Putting the consumer at the heart of change
Upskilling the installer base to create a cohort of highly skilled low-carbon heat installers
Working with government to ensure a supportive policy mix.
The decarbonisation of heat is a key priority following the government’s announcement that the UK will become the fi rst major nation to commit to reaching a net-zero
carbon emissions target by 2050. The report demonstrates the vast carbon savings that heat pumps can achieve immediately, that will be vital to avoiding the worst consequences of the climate crisis.
The question of how we are going to decarbonise the heating of buildings in the future is of huge interest to designers, occupiers and installers. The e report off ers ff
roadmap presented in the report off a large part of the answer to this. Emissions through the burning of fossil fuels will not fall unless low- carbon heating systems are attractive to consumers, either by improving comfort levels or saving them money. The vision report enforces a message to consumers that heat pump
technology can help to address other policy issues such as fuel poverty and air quality.
Installers will play a vital role in raising awareness among potential

customers but there is an urgent need f or trained and skilled technicians to b e able to design, install and operate h eat pump systems properly. Over the coming months, the HPA will work with other leading organisations to roll out a programme of training that will take existing heating engineers t hrough the whole process of
designing, installing and maintaining effi cient low-carbon heating systems. The report also calls for strong government leadership at both local and national levels and highlights the work the HPA carries out in consulting with all stakeholders to develop eff ective policy on the regulatory framework for the future of heating buildings to phase out high carbon fossil fuels.
Graham Wright, chairman of the HPA, said: “The heating industry has been one of the biggest contributors to carbon emissions and we now fi nd ourselves at a pivotal moment as we look to decarbonise our heating supply. The HPA believes that there is a huge opportunity for the country to embrace heat pump technology at this time, and we want to re-emphasise the fact that heat pumps provide strong carbon savings now that will only increase further in the future. “However, th e successful widesprea d adoption of heat pumps relies on the industry stepping up to help shape strong government policy, education and consumer acceptance. This report will act as a ‘roadmap’ in how we can achieve these goals and help the UK achieve the net-zero carbon emissions target.”
