On Wednesday 22 February 2023, Dr Cordin Arpagaus, Senior Research Engineer, Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences (OST) presented an update on the latest high-temperature heat pump technology developments and applications happening in Europe - a great preview for what we can expect in Australia and New Zealand.
Uptake of heat pumps has seen massive growth in the last year as European countries seek to decarbonise and reduce reliance on gas, for industrial processes and for residential heating needs. All the while, researchers are developing and testing technologies to increase the useful temperature range for heat pumps. What developments can we expect in the coming years? Watch this invaluable webinar to find out.
