The role of the Commission of the European Communities in supporting and promoting heat pump technology.

Author(s) : REAY D. A.

Summary

The Commission of the European Communities (CEC) has been active in promoting heat pump technology for approximately 20 years. Initiatives have principally taken the form of R& D programmes such as JOULE and THERMIE. Recently, these activities have been supplemented by the formation of a Heat Pump Supporting Group, with representatives drawn from utilities, equipment manufacturers and other interested parties, with a view to stimulating a wider appreciation of heat pumps within Europe. This paper describes some of the projects being supported under the JOULE 2 R&D programme of the CEC, and reports on the activities of the Supporting Group and its future role.
