Summary

Development and application of sustainable energy is one of the objectives of the Dutch government in recent years, and heat pump systems for buildings are one of the spearheads in this policy. In 1999, an agreement was reached between about 60 participants (government, contractors, installers, producers, suppliers, property developers and research institutes) to coordinate and stimulate implementation of heat pumps. After four years, a study was carried out by TNO, KEMA and BMT of the competitive strength of heat pumps in The Netherlands. The study was ordered by Novem, and interim results have been discussed with the parties. The main results and conclusions are presented.
