NGOs and natural refrigerant equipment suppliers praise the ambitious position taken on f-gas removal, but the EPEE looks for more ‘balance’ in coming negotiations.
“Ambition requires action: The Heat Pump Accelerator for RepowerEU” Heat Pump Forum & Award 2022puts heat pumps at the centre of the green, digital, cost-effective energy transition and industrial transformation. The European Commission’s REPowerEU plan builds on the ambitious heat pump targets it set out in March. Those targets require around 20 million heat pumps to be installed in the EU…
The Annex 58 high-temperature heat pump project has reviewed systems supplying temperatures over 100°C and found refrigerants like CO2, water, hydrocarbons, helium and ammonia being used.
Heat pump sales in the European Union grew by 11.2% in 2017, marking the fourth consecutive year of growth for the EU heat pump market and the third consecutive year of double-digit growth. And several markets in Europe look likely to report continued growth in 2018, according to the European Heat Pumps Association’s (EHPA) newly…
Natural refrigerant-based heat pumps can help increase efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions from heating and cooling buildings – one of the biggest causes of global warming, heard ATMOsphere Europe participants.
