Importance of heat pumps in the future energy system.

Number: 1158

Author(s) : PALM B.

Summary

Global warming, caused by release of carbon dioxide from combustion of fossil fuels is forcing us to phase out these fuels and instead rely on renewable energy or nuclear power. This means that we are moving from an energy system based on fuels to one based on electricity. A large share of the energy used today is used for heating, mainly in the built environment, but also in industry. As we move towards an electricity-based energy system, there will be a very large increase in the demand for, and applications of, heat pumps. This presentation will discuss the challenges in connection to this transformation.
