Nesta - The UK's Innovation Agency 116d ago

While heat pumps are a cornerstone of the UK’s transition to clean heat, the installation process remains significantly more complex than replacing a traditional gas boiler. This journey is currently hindered by a range of systemic barriers, including intricate policy requirements, technical installation hurdles and a lack of clear, accessible information for consumers. These obstacles frequently create uncertainty for homeowners and industry professionals alike, which can slow the adoption of clean heating technologies and strain the resources of those delivering them. Join us for an online session to explore the latest insights and advancements in heat pump adoption. We will begin by presenting the most recent findings from Nesta’s research, identifying the five primary areas where improvements are most urgently needed to facilitate a more seamless transition to clean heat. The session will feature a series of fast-paced presentations from industry innovators, showcasing bold and viable solutions to the sector's most pressing challenges. These experts will share insights on how to transform policy, technical processes and consumer advice to make heat pump installations more straightforward. We are a UK charity and our work is enabled by a financial endowment. Nesta is a registered charity in England and Wales 1144091 and Scotland SC042833.
