IN ALL COUNTRIES GROUND-SOURCE HEAT PUMPS HAVE LOWER EMISSIONS THAN GAS BOILERS Already today, ground source heat pumps working on the national electricity mix are the least emitting technologies in all member states. This type of technology decreases the CO2 intensity of heating to a degree largely dependent on the carbon intensity of the national electricity grid and the average temperatures in the member states. Heat Pumps, which can be combined with both solar thermal and PV panels for improved results, decrease emissions EE PL CY GR MT BG CZ NL PT DE IE RO ES 27 HU SI IT BE HR LV SK DK LT CO2 EMISSIONS REDUCTION by an average of 65% compared with installing a new GB gas boiler. It is worth stressing that some HPs in the market can use existing radiators and do not require special plumbing works. The countries where this technology outperforms gas the most are Sweden, with emissions cut by 92% and AT France (-88%) while the countries where the gap is FI smaller are Poland (-10%) and Estonia (-10%), due to LU their high share of coal in the electricity production. FR SE NO 0% -20% AIR TO WATER HEAT PUMPS HAVE LOWER EMISSIONS THAN GAS BOILERS IN ALMOST ALL MEMBER STATES The reference technology for this study, air-to-water heat pumps, are available in all member states and their sales are growing by the year. They outperform gas boilers on emissions in all member states but two, Poland and Estonia, due to the high share of coal in the power sectors of these two states. With the share of renewables due to drastically increase in those two member states by 2030, the performance of HP in these areas is expected to align with the rest of Europe in the second half of the decade, hence offsetting the higher emissions in the second part of its lifespan. Member states where this technology outperforms gas the most are Sweden with emissions cut by 92%, France 87%, Lithuania 82%, Austria 81%, and Finland 81% while remarkable emissions cuts are achievable also in countries with relatively low shares of renewables in the electricity mix like Cyprus (-38%) or Malta (-57%) where comparison is made with the most common fossil alternative, condensing oil boilers. -92% -81% -9% -57% -40% -60% -80% -100% 3PDF Image | GREEN HEAT FOR ALL
