#DYK that about 50% of energy used in the EU goes towards heating 🔥 and cooling ❄️?
The EU is taking actions to increase the rollout of #HeatPumps, a sustainable and efficient heating solution.

Heat pumps work when it's cold.
Our research shows: In fact they are much more efficient than fossil fuel systems even at sub-zero temperatures.

"Why are electricity prices so high if renewables break generation records and are so cheap?" I have been asked.
The main reason: Gas still sets the price 63% of the time in wholesale electricity markets in EU27 & >90% in some countries.

🇪🇺 At least 60% of heat pumps sold in Europe are also produced here. And this is set to increase.
🏭 There are now over 250 manufacturing sites in Europe and the sector employs around 160.000 people directly.

Burning activities in the residential sector is the primary source of pollution in 56% of the European cities we monitored.
Moving away from fuelwood use for household heating would help increase air quality and the life standard of EU citizens.

I have often said that decarbonising heat is the biggest challenge of the energy transition in cities, but this new report from @BPIE_eu makes the case that climate adaptation and resilience could be the most urgent challenge.

This is the largest heat pump in the world (60MW).
It is located in Esbjerg, DK and provides heating for 100,000 people.
The heat pump replaced coal-fired thermal generation using Denmark's electricity which is 2/3 from wind and solar.
