Renewable Heating - heat pumps and solar energy
Heat pumps are suitable for nearly all homes and have the potential to reduce your energy expenses, depending on the type of system you are replacing.
To move heat from outside to inside your home, a heat pump uses electricity, but the amount of heat energy transferred to your home is significantly greater than the electrical energy consumed by the system.
With an increasing number of renewable energy sources connected to the electricity grid, electricity is becoming more low carbon, replacing existing coal and gas power plants. As a result, heat pumps are an extremely low carbon heating option and will become more so as the electricity grid becomes more decarbonized.
Across the UK, tens of thousands of heat pumps have already been installed, and over 1.5 million were installed throughout Europe in 2020 alone. To achieve our net-zero targets, the UK government anticipates the installation of millions of heat pumps in homes over the next 10-15 years.

Find out more about the different types of heat pump
Air Source Heat Pumps
An air source heat pump, sometimes referred to as an air-to-water source heat pump, transfers heat from the outside air to water
Ground Source Heat Pumps
A ground source heat pump, sometimes referred to as a ground-to-water heat pump, transfers heat from the ground outside your home
Hybrid Heat Pumps
This term refers to a system that uses a heat pump alongside another heat source. Typically, it describes fitting a heat pump alongside a fossil fuel (gas, oil or LPG) boiler
Air-to-Air Heat Pumps
Air-to-air heat pumps transfer heat from the outside air to air inside your home, increasing the temperature of the air in each room. This warm air enters your home through a series of fan coil units, or ‘blowers’
Cascade Heat Pumps
A cascaded heat pump system allows more than one heat pump unit to work together to meet a property’s heating and hot water requirements
Water Source Heat Pumps
A water source heat pump (WSHP) uses the heat energy from water to provide heating and hot water for your home
Exhaust Air Heat Pump
An exhaust air heat pump (EAHP) transfers heat from a ventilation system to warm air that heats your home. The heat can also be used to heat water stored in a hot water cylinder for your hot taps, showers and baths
Solar Assisted Heat Pumps
A solar assisted heat pump is a heat pump combined with a solar collector (a series of panels that convert sunlight into heat)
Boiler Upgrade Scheme
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) is a UK Government initiative to encourage more people in England and Wales to install low carbon heating systems, such as heat pumps and biomass boilers
