The first side event of the day will explore the fitting of heat pumps in both new and historic buildings, notably the Blavatnik School of Government and other University of Oxford buildings.
Hosted by Geoenergy, who have first hand experience on the above, the session will explore the fantastic potential of efficient heat pump design, and the need to aim for nothing less than optimum efficiency.
The session will then examine a series of novel and efficient heat pump systems from around Oxford, before breaking into three discussion areas:
1 in 6 people in the target area have registered their interest in switching to a heat pump; 14 homes (and counting) have had a new heat pump, including 5 on the same road.
Hosted by Oxford City council, a panel of people working on the project will talk about the opportunities and challenges of a hyper-local approach to heat pump deployment.
We will be announcing further panel partners and narratives closer to the summit.
