However, further improvements could also be derived from better heat pump system design and integration and better training of installers and users (Caird et al., 2012; Owen et al., 2012). Show abstract Domestic demand-side management (DSM): Role of heat pumps and thermal energy storage (...
Over time, the path to net zero will necessitate the creation of new roles, based around cutting edge skills including carbon capture scientists, clean gas experts, engineers with renewable energy skills and heat pump and EV charge point installers. To ensure progress, the sector will need to ...
Installers must be also be trained to fit these systems. The location of an air source heat pump is important, as some residents complain about noise from fans near the windows of living spaces. In cold areas, air source heat pumps should be placed in reliably sunny spots to reduce the ri...
