EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Market influencers expressed interest in leveraging collaboration opportunities. Further, they identified upcoming research and or industry activities aimed at accelerating the design, acceptance and excitement for GHP technology. Another noted opportunity for collaboration is NRCan’s work as part of the Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change. This opportunity would involve testing and development, thereby leveraging the shared interest in advancing gas technologies that exists across borders. Additionally, NEEA’s work with GTI to coordinate and design a residential GHPWH demonstration project provides an opportunity to advance GHPWHs and inform future advancement activities. Both of these efforts appear to leverage product testing and in-field research with activities geared toward increasing market understanding and readying the market for ultimate acceptance. Most market influencers highlighted the importance of the natural gas industry’s consistent presence in the policy and industry discussion. With a shared focus on a low-carbon pathway, GHPs provide an opportunity to reduce energy consumption and reduce GHG emissions. Market influencers expressed that additional work stemming from the GHP Roadmap may offer an opportunity for deeper collaboration. Market influencers are eager to review the GHP Roadmap results and believe the efforts are necessary, timely and worthwhile. LDCs While LDCs share the same fundamental reasons for prioritizing GHPs, there is variance in the specifics based on local market, customers, regulation and climate. Factors include: LDCs following Integrated Resource Plans (IRPs) that define GHPs as a solution for site-and- source GHG reductions; policy pressure on direct gas usage; the desire to demonstrate innovation; and, in specific sectors with diminishing efficiency solutions for customers, the desire to seize the opportunity to catapult gas technologies into the future with a product differentiator. Almost every LDC highlighted the need for new products, like GHPs, in light of increasing federal standards. Regardless of each LDCs specific reasons for their GHP interest and commitment, it is clear that all LDCs are eager to accelerate GHPs market entry and adoption by working collaboratively with each other and the market. For the most part, LDCs are focused on the technology without sector and end-use being a driver. Unlike the market, LDCs see market potential for GHPs and are concerned about product performance and reliability. Three LDCs have funding to support pre- commercialized product activity related to concept design, prototype development, and testing analysis, while many others can only support with energy efficiency program budgets that require proven deemed savings. The majority of LDCs have access to some data sets that can benefit technology developers and manufacturers. Many LDCs identified the need to develop collective strategies and tactics to reduce duplicate efforts and cost. They also highlighted the need for deeper collaboration tracking all GHP activities across the U.S. and Canada including lab testing, field testing, and codes and standards across state, province, federal, regional, and local government jurisdictions.
