Even with poor insulation, heat pumps still save energy As well as reducing CO2 emissions, a heat pump can use three to five times less energy than an efficient gas boiler. However, an often-heard argument when considering replacing a gas boiler is that the house needs to be well-insulated for the heat pump to work. Heat pumps do work best in a well-insulated house because their heat output is at a lower temperature than a traditional boiler, and they perform best when providing a consistent heat output with minimal heat losses. If a house loses a lot…

Ramping up Heat Pumps in Moldova: A Roadmap Financing the transition
…presents a challenge.One solution is to provide point-of-sale rebates, where the tax credit is deducted immediately from the sales price. The United States Inflation Reduction Act offers this. Another is to provide zero-interest bridge loans – from a development bank or local municipality, for example – to cover the anticipated tax credit.Energy companies can also provide subsidies through energy efficiency obligation (EEO) programmes. Under these schemes, energy companies are legally required to deliver a specified amount of energy savings to their customers. This can be achieved through heat pumps, since they help save energy. In France, clean heating...
