Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are incredibly efficient and as Ben explains in this clip some new heat pumps can reach an incredible efficiency of 400% so for every unit of energy put in, four can be put out. As the grid becomes greening, having moved to a larger % of renewable energy sources, of course the carbon footprint assosciated with the electricity production also comes down. Furthermore, the government are helping to fund the roll out of heat pumps, with a grant to help support homeowners with the current high costs to encourage their uptake, which can reduce their cost by around 50%.
