The Future of Heating Equipment is Electric: Heat Pump Technology Deep Dive
Decarbonization is the reduction or elimination of carbon emissions. To that end, many building owners are seeking to decarbonize their operations through the electrification of heat. Instead of using fossil fuels, such as a gas-fired burner to heat their buildings, owners are turning to electrified HVAC equipment like heat pumps. Electrification of a building’s heat will not eliminate total environmental emissions on its own. The vision behind building electrification is driven by the goal of renewable energy powering the majority of the electric grid in the future.
