The objective of the three-year project KnowHowHP is to upskill installers and professionals with an integral planning process to increase the use of heat pumps (HP) in existing multi-story buildings. HP is increasingly used in single-family homes rather than in existing apartment buildings. 

Increased use of HP in this field helps to fulfil the EU's climate and energy goals and the European Green Deal. The training and qualification of planners and installers are crucial to ensure that HP and refurbishment concepts are optimally aligned; otherwise, these refurbishments and the transition to HP are just not realised with the argument that it is not feasible. 

Start date: November 2024 - End date: November 2027
