A total of up to £10m of grant funding is available through this wave of the Heat Pump Ready programme, to be allocated across four challenge categories. We welcome applications for technology, tools, business model, and process innovation projects that will:
- Improve the ease of heat pump deployment in homes that are ‘complex to decarbonise’ by addressing physical, material, locational, technological, regulatory, or social challenges.
- Develop innovative solutions to enable heat pumps to be deployed in ‘distress purchase’ situations when a new home heating system is required urgently.
- Improve performance and/or reduce costs of domestic heat pumps with low-GWP refrigerants.
- Reduce the lifetime costs, improve the overall lifetime performance of domestic heat pumps or improve the domestic consumer experience of using and living with a heat pump.
