This document aims to outline measures that help accelerate the deployment of heat pumps by positively influencing the necessary market dynamics. It is aimed at policymakers on the EU and national level and connects current and proposed policy measures to the legal environment.
REPowerEU proposes an ambitious target to wean off Europe of (Russian) gas. It includes a fast-forward target of 10 million hydronic heat pumps to be installed by 2026 aiming at doubling the installation rate and a total of 30 million newly installed hydronic units by 2030/31. Extrapolating this to all heat pump technologies, needed to achieve the transition towards renewable and efficient heating and cooling, would deliver more than 18 million heat pumps by 2026 and 53 million heat pumps by 2031.
