📈 #Heatpump sales grew by 11% in 13 EU countries in 2025, reaching 2.34 million units sold.

Stable policies and lower electricity costs drive growth, but gaps between countries show untapped potential.

Ok that’s a tad scary
The other day, right after the French gov announced they were going to forego anything US in our technical systems, I started writing a draft of a post here

But I got interrupted a bunch of times, switching back and forth between apps on my iPhone, and Mastodon (glitch-soc fork) gave up, eventually reloaded/reset my draft and that was that…

But today I got this starter screen on YouTube, also on my iPhone, and I find that incredible/scary

The intent of my cancelled post was that, as a heat pump owner, and not really an early adopter at that, I’m kinda annoyed that there was no financial incentive for me beyond the initial investment: my yearly contract and options are not (financially) better now, and in fact they are slightly worse

But here in this screenshot we have a clear ad to the contrary, hosted on YouTube (which I didn’t consult for this journey), and presumably by my secondary energy provider

… which happens to be my gas provider (not electricity), and the one energy that I’m trying to get rid of, so that’s manifold-ly weird

When I tell people what we paid for electricity over the last year (about £1500) they’re astounded how cheap our heat pump is to run. Then I point out that includes driving around 10,000 miles and all our cooking.

I was able to say this to a guy who popped round for some free concrete blocks and asked about the heat pump. Fair to say he was aghast…. Given what he’d just been quoted for a tank of heating oil. #heatpump #oilprice #domesticenergy #solar

Heat pumps refrigerate the outside.

“Électrification : les mesures annoncées par le Gouvernement

Leasing social, pompes à chaleur, voitures électriques… : la France accélère son électrification pour réduire sa dépendance au gaz et au pétrole et renforcer sa souveraineté. Le soutien à l’électrification atteindra 10 milliards d’euros en 2030.”

"The practical experience gained from this project shows that heat pumps can be reliably used for grid-friendly load shifting – without restricting the heat supply to households."

100+ residential heat pumps in Germany delivered power system flexibility to TSOs TenneT and TransnetBW
