T-4A1b-TE-1 - Shift to heat pumps in single-family buildings
Background¶
IPCC WG3 definition: .
Heat pumps for domestic heating provide heat efficiently with zero emissions and a low lifecycle cost. They can also provide cooling. Switching to low carbon heating must be done alongside energy efficiency, so as to size the new heating system properly and guarantee high-performing, low-energy systems.
