Heat Pump Award Forum

Trane® by Trane Technologies  has been awarded the European Heat Pump Association’s (EHPA) People’s Choice Award for its Thermal System installation at Broomfield College in Derby.

The project replaced the college’s existing fossil fuel boilers with a Thermal System combining both Air and Water Sourced Heat pumps, reducing energy consumption by 790,000 kWh and 160 tons of CO2 emissions, annually.

The project at Broomfield College highlights how Trane is using new technologies to help our customers reduce their carbon footprint.

Heat pump markets across Europe experienced record growth last year. According to the EHPA, an all-time high of 2.18 million heat pump units were sold in 2021, 34% more than the year before. The heat pumps that are installed in the EU avoid over 44 million tons of CO2, slightly more than the annual emissions of Ireland.
