Passion for heat pumps


If you watch heat pump videos at half past three at night...

For years I have been fascinated by smart heat pumps in all shapes, types and colors. When others are sleeping, I always learn a little something. My job as a key account manager and country manager in a German heat pump sales organization means that I also deal with political issues relating to the GEG (Building Energy Act) and the BEG (Federal Funding for Efficient Buildings) and I challenge and support my sales colleagues in all federal states . You can find out right at the beginning why it makes sense to use a heat pump in an existing building (EFH):


Why heat pumps?


Independent of oil and gas

The main argument against rising energy costs in the future.

You save heating costs

As shown in the cost comparison below, the heat pump is worthwhile in around 75% of existing buildings. Yes, and also with a radiator.

You reduce CO2 emissions

With a heat pump you are actively doing something against climate change.

The value of your property increases

Investing in a heat pump improves the overall efficiency and value of your home.

Heat pump and PV matched

WP and PV are a dream couple. With the smart use of your own electricity, you can operate household electricity, e-mobility and HP heating very cheaply.

Can also cool

The heat pump can also cool, something that no oil or gas heater can do. So you can e.g. B. Cool down your house by approx. 4-5 Kelvin in summer.

Gas heat pump


Heating replacement EFH

Are you a single-family home owner and wondering whether you should quickly have a gas boiler installed?


First take a look at this cost comparison (just an example, no assumption of liability) and discover that it is almost always worth installing a heat pump (in approx. 75% of all old buildings) and not just because of the CO2 savings and because it benefits the climate, but also for economic reasons.


You have to look at the whole thing over a 20-year period and also take the CO2 fines into account.

Explanations


Efficiency

A HP is 3-5 times more efficient than a gas boiler. It works with electricity and generates approx. 3-5 kWh of heat from one kWh of electricity. Therefore, the annual consumption of 20,000 kWh in this case (with renovation and a high-quality A WP for W55) is divided by 3.5.

Invest after funding

According to the new heating law from January 1st, 2024, the maximum investment amount that can be funded is unfortunately only €30,000 instead of €60,000. i.e. 50% (basic funding 30% + speed bonus of 20%) of €30,000 is €15,000. As of 12/14/23. The funding can be applied for now, as of January 29, 2024.

Energy prices

Of course, nobody knows how energy prices will develop in the future. In many places there are so-called WP tariffs and also nationwide providers that offer a WP tariff that is far below the fixed market price. The company 1Komma5 z. B. offers an electricity price guarantee between 15 and 23 cents/kWh depending on the region. This reduces the operating costs for the WP between 40 and 51%. Here the link.

CO2 pricing

The fine will increase drastically over the next few years and the federal government wants to get us citizens away from fossil fuels. Over the next 20 years, this results in an impressive fine of over €4-5,000. More info.


Funding from the state up to 70%
