ASHPs, typically operating in combination with supplemental electric resistance heating, are a viable and economical means to improve electric heating efficiency. Independent research shows ASHPs will maintain a coefficient of performance (COP) well above 1, and often between 2 to 3, in cold-climate conditions (as compared to a COP of 1 for electric resistance heat). In essence, this means that for every unit of energy consumed the unit produces two to three times more units of thermal energy. In Minnesota, converting from less efficient electric systems to heat pump-only or hybrid electric systems offers significant opportunity for energy savings. Billing data analysis of individual homes highlights examples of electrically-heating homes that have realized as much as 40% electricity consumption reductions through the adoption of hybrid ASHP systems. Overall, customers are highly satisfied with their system’s performance. Surveyed customers provide an average rating of 4.3 on a 5-point scale (1 = ‘Poor’, 5 = ‘Excellent’) across all dimensions of their hybrid system performance. A large majority of customers adopting hybrid ASHPs are found to be converting from other heating fuel sources. Figure 5.
