Résumé

Japanese electric utilities are facing the problem of a high peak demand in summer because of the electrical consumption of air conditioners. This has motivated the Japanese government, in cooperation with electric utilities and gas utilities, to start various activities promoting the use of thermal storage (in combination with heat pumps) and gas-driven heat pumps. These promotional efforts include subsidies which give clear cost benefits to the heat pump owner. The article describes the background of these subsidy systems and practical activities designed to influence the market situation in Japan.
