The authors of the study, published in the journal Joule, note that heat pumps have become a crucial technology in the transition to a clean and reliable energy supply and are pivotal for the future of heating. The analysis demonstrated high performance even at low temperatures. The authors noted that heat pumps operate two to three times more efficiently than combustion heating or electric resistance heating technology.<\/p>\n<p>The authors analyzed data from seven field performance studies of air-source heat pumps in a moderate climate, where the average January temperature is above minus 10 degrees Celsius. Between 5 and minus 10 degrees Celsius, the COP was 2.74, meaning that heat pumps have significantly higher efficiency than fossil fuel and electric heating systems, according to the authors. The study concluded that even air-source heat pumps, which are the easiest to install, are suitable for temperatures below freezing.<\/p>\n<p>The study demonstrated the efficiency of heat pumps in extremely cold climates, showing they are twice as efficient as electric heating systems. Efficiency does decline in extremely cold conditions. However, the authors note that heat pumps can be a backup heating option. The results show that a COP between 1.5 and 2 can be achieved even at extremely low temperatures, such as minus 30 degrees Celsius.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/balkangreenenergynews.com\/heat-pumps-twice-as-efficient-as-fossil-fuel-heating-study\/\">Balkan Green Energy News<\/a><\/p>\n<p><p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/7-400\/\">Heat pumps twice as efficient as fossil fuel heating \u2013 study<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,702,7016],"class_list":["post-116869","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-fossil-fuel","tag-heat-pump"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116869","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=116869"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116869\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=116869"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=116869"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=116869"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
