    1. Heat pumps – those powered by electricity, as well as those using fuel – have a significant potential for reducing the specific CO2 emissions for the heat supply in multifamily buildings. This potential is connected with special demands on both sides: the domestic hot water preparation and the heat transfer system (heat sink) as well as the utilization of environmental energy at site (heat source).

    1. Opportunities and challenges of implementing heat pumps in district heating and cooling systems

      IEA Report 2020 - Heat pumps in district heating and cooling systems

    2. Heat pumps, powered by low-emissions electricity, are the central technology in the global transition to secure and sustainable heating. The Future of Heat Pumps, a special report in the IEA’s World Energy Outlook series, provides an outlook for heat pumps, identifying key opportunities to accelerate their deployment.

    1. Heat Pump Ready programme:

      There are two main types of projects:

      High density deployment: 11 projects that are focussed on high density deployment of heat pumps in local areas; Optimised solutions: 24 projects that are building new tools, technologies, processes and approaches to improve heat pump deployment.

    1. We gaan in 5 stappen bepalen of je woning met de huidige radiatoren #LTready is.

      in 5 stappen bepalen

      Stap 1: Bepaal het jaarlijkse gasverbruik voor de ruimteverwarming

      Stap 2: Bepaal het gasverbruik op de ontwerpdag (-10 °C buiten daggemiddeld)

      Stap 3: Bepaal de benodigde uurpiek op de ontwerpdag

      Stap 4: Zet de maximale CV-temperatuur voor ruimteverwarming op 50 °C

      Stap 5: Zet de kamerthermostaat een paar graden hoger, zodat de verwarming minimaal 2 uur aan staat.

    1. “We need to find ways to meet our customers’ needs and ambitions of reducing emissions to remain relevant for them.

      Énergir can, and should, meet their customers' needs by helping them to end their use of gas and by accelerating a managed decapitalization of their existing gas assets. Énergir should "Pump Heat, Not Gas." By this I mean, they should refocus as a "thermal-utility," rather than as a gas-supplier and build a new business focused on the installation of heat pumps and the provision of geothermal district heating for their customers.
