In a recent study, careful cost assessment needs to be done before installing a heat pump.

This symposium is a must-attend for professionals from research institutions, manufacturers, consultants, end-users, and anyone interested in high-temperature heat pumps.

Event time: 23 - 24 January 2024, 08:00 – 17:00 CET

The International Active House Association is inviting exemplary and innovative building projects to apply for the Active House Awards, celebrating best practices in the field of sustainable and people-centric buildings.

Being heat pumps the most energy-efficient heating technology, energy crisis has led to an increase of investments in them.

Pursuing green construction and energy efficiency can generate more construction jobs, but labour shortages and skills mismatches need to be tackled.

Heat pumps are key to reduce buildings´ emissions, but they remain unaffordable for many.

Heat pumps represent a clear alternative to fossil fuel heating and their sales have been increasing in Europe as a push away from natural gas.

The UK has the fewest number of heat pumps in Europe, whereas Norway or Sweden have the highest.

A Special Issue of The Journal of Facade Design and Engineering: "Multifunctional Façades for Renovation through Industrialization" has been released.

Heat pumps are more efficient than gas boilers and the UK is planning to reach an estimate of 80% of homes to be heated by them in the next 25 years.
