Accelerating the Development of Low Greenhouse Gas Residential Heat Pumps
September 13, 2023
As the climate crisis spends more time in the headlines, heat pumps are often celebrated as a potent tool for both addressing climate change and making sure global populations can survive and thrive in a warmer world. But while heat pumps’ efficiency is extremely attractive, their reliance on working fluids with high global warming potentials […]
Overcoming Barriers to Heat Pump Adoption
August 8, 2023
Broad, global adoption of heat pump systems is important. For example, in order to reduce carbon emissions and reach carbon neutrality by 2050 (as outlined in the International Energy Agency’s Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario), heat pumps will need to provide at least 20% of the world’s heating and cooling by 2030. Right now, […]
