Understanding Solar Energy & Heat Pumps

Attendees will learn how solar panels convert sunlight into electricity and explore various types of heat pumps, such as air-source and ground-source, which efficiently transfer heat for heating and cooling purposes.

Additionally, the event will cover the integration of these technologies, demonstrating how solar panels can power heat pumps to create a highly efficient and sustainable energy system. Real-world examples, technical considerations, and performance data will be shared to provide a comprehensive understanding of these renewable energy solutions.

Followed by a Q&A, tea, coffee and a chance to chat
