Résumé

Finland reached one million heat pump installations in year 2019. Heat pump sales and stock in relation to population of 5.5 million is one of the biggest in the world. Heat pumps produce as much as 15% (>10TWh/a) of Finnish heating. Investments in heat pumps now amount to EUR 6 billion. The decarbonisation impact of heat pumps already over 2 million tons CO2 eq. Reasons behind this success story may be useful to understand. Good circumstances such as cold climate, moderate electricity prices, lack of gas network and good drilling conditions help create a very successful heat pump market without subsidies. But very active lobbying and market creating activities by the national heat pump association cannot be overemphasised, along with taking care of sufficient and appropriate information flow to all parties. The quality issues of products and installation have also been all the time under a critical eye. Finnish success story continues. According to recent studies, in 2030 heat pumps will produce 22 TWh/a with those 2 million heat pumps. The Finnish government has decided recently that Finland will be carbon neutral in 2035. In a large Finnish Smart Energy Transition research project a very challenging 35 TWh/a target has been set for heat pumps in 2040.
