Industrial Heat Pump Market Transformation
ACEEE research has found that industrial heat pumps (IHPs) in key industrial sectors can cut the energy use associated with process heat by up to one third and enable CO2 savings of between 30-43 million tons per year. However, IHPs are not available at scale for industrial end-users. This presentation will outline ACEEE's market transformation campaign to change this; analyzing multiple points of the complex value chain, federal policy initiatives, and technical support needs to commercialize this critical technology.
