Global heat pump sales by country?
…on data from the European Heat Pump Association. Projections for European heat pumps are found in our European natural gas model. US residential and commercial HVAC system deployments are available…
Windy physics: how is power of a wind turbine calculated?
…and turbulence. Additional blades also add cost. Hence it can make sense to have more blades (5-blades to 13-blades) for small-scale wind turbines in residential/light commercial settings. These are exposed…
European gas and power model: natural gas supply-demand?
…residential heating, c10% in commercial heating, c25% in electricity generation, and smaller quantities in T&D and transportation (chart below). Gas demand is disaggregated across a dozen different industries in the…
Costs of home heating technologies
…costs 0-100%; but the numbers all vary case-by-case and comparisons are not fully apples-to-apples. Please see our broader research into heat pumps, residential energy consumption, heat pump sales and air…
Leading Companies Commercialising Heat Pumps?
Heat pumps can halve the CO2 intensity of residential heating while also lowering costs by c10-35% in some cases. This all creates an exciting opportunity for heat pumps in the…
District heating: the economics?
District heating supplies residential or commercial consumers with centrally generated heat, waste heat from power generation (combined heat and power) or from other industrial processes. Capturing waste heat lowers CO2-intensity….
Decarbonize Heat?
Natural gas currently fuels two-thirds of residential and commercial heating, which in turn comprises c10% of global CO2. In this 20-page report, we have assessed ten technologies to decarbonize heat,…
A breakdown of US energy consumption per person per year
…content, by cost and across ten different categories: goods, services, food, driving, flying, freight, public transit, heating, cooling and residential appliances (chart above). They are also split out by income…
