Overview
Heat pumps were developed with renewable energy in mind, and the possibility to use renewably produced electricity is a key advantage that heat pumps have over conventional heating systems (such as those using oil or gas). Heat pumps raise the thermal level of a working fluid using a mechanical compressor driven by, for example, electrical energy.
