Overcoming Preconceptions to Drive Heat Pump Technology into Buildings
Heat pumps have been around for a while, they increasingly make cost and environmental sense for buildings, yet their adoption is still limited. Buildings represent 40% of global energy consumption and, within the building, space and water heating make up two-thirds of energy consumption. This means that heating/cooling in buildings represents over 25% of all energy […]

“To meet Net Zero Virtually All Heat in Buildings Will Need to be Decarbonised”
In 2019 the UK became the first major economy to pass laws to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050. Alongside plans for sprawling off-shore wind farms and progressive rooftop solar financing initiatives, we have seen building efficiency become a growing presence in UK government strategies over the past two years. This […]

Geothermal heating reduces carbon emissions, energy costs, and dependence on fossil fuels, and has become a standard in many parts of the world. The US lags behind, however, with geothermal having to fight for the federal incentive “scraps” that solar and wind power have only recently recovered. New developments and a renewed sense of optimism […]
