Look For a Project

Electrification of building energy use is often proposed as a means to achieve greenhouse gas emissions reductions. However building electrification poses potential practical problems as not all buildings are feasible for installation of heat pumps. This project will explore practical barriers to heat pump adoption. What types of buildings are suitable for heat pump retrofits and which ones are less suitable? What barriers exist and how costly are solutions to overcome these barriers?
