Heating is on the electrification path. Sales of heat pumps increased by 25%.
Combustion-based heating generates a significant proportion of the total volume of carbon dioxide emissions in Finland. To combat climate change, we must stop using fossil fuels, but in the long term, we must also stop burning biofuels. In Finnish conditions, heat pumps are often the most practical and cost-effective solution for combustion-free transition. Using electricity, […]
Without investments there will be no change. Except climate change.
Heating of buildings accounts for a significant proportion of carbon dioxide emissions as fossil fuels presently provide the vast majority of heating. To reduce CO2 emissions, we have to stop burning fossil fuels and, in the longer term, biofuels. Heating must be electrified. Heat pump technology offers a highly competitive way to abandon burning. Heat […]
