Business and energy minister Lord Callanan says the UK's planned transition to lowcarbon heat systems will be a "gradual transformation" rather than a more drastic revolution in the industry. The minister (pictured right) said that low-carbon systems such as heat pumps are a fledgling industry...
Air-source heat pumps Geothermal heat pumps Smart thermostats Air conditioning (room & central) Furnaces Ventilation fans Heating System Programs Now, we can illustrate how these various government grants for HVAC replacement systems might help pay for heating equipment, such as gas furnaces, heat pum...
For many European countries the electrification of heat provision, via heat pumps (HPs), provides a promising decarbonisation pathway. The UK is no different, but recently concerns have been raised about the financial attractiveness of HPs given how, through various policy choices, taxes and ...
ab. there are more and more large scale buildings apply borehole ground source heat pumps in China, while the unoccupied field for the building is less and less, therefore, the underground heat exchangers must be arranged in smaller ground space, and the thermal disturbance among the heat excha...
I am very pleased that the government is funding R&D into hydrogen and batteries. These will be huge future industries and we must make sure that we are world leaders in these fields. (If anything, the government is not investing enough – with the development of gigafactories being delayed ...

Harms and G. Hirschfelder, Vereinigte Elektrizit盲tswerke Westfalen Aktiengesellschaft. - Combined Production ...
Households will be offered ￡5,000 government grants from next year to install heat pumps as part of a ￡450m scheme to replace their current natural gas boilers. The funding, which has been widely criticised for its lack of scale, is intended to be provided over a three-year period from...
The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero said it was also looking at options to offer more flexible funding to account for properties that may require more extensive financial support to install a heat pump. The existing BUS offers grants of ￡5,000 and ￡6,000 for air-source and ...
This chapter focuses on the role of the Japanese government and utilities in R&D of advanced heat pumps and protection of the environment. R&D on energy conservation technologies includes focusing on everything from software to hardware, covering every stage from fundamental research to practical ...
This paper describes the principal geothermal resources which can be used in France for the heating of buildings and briefly outlines the technical and economic aspects of this type of heating, showing that, by means of heat pumps, electricity can give a better return on investment in drillings...
