CADMUS: Residential ccASHP Building Electrification Study
Overview
Download Cadmus' deep-dive research on heat pump building electrification, focused on Northeast U.S., residential data collection and analysis to expand your understanding of cold climate air source heat pumps.
Cadmus released deep-dive research on heat pump building electrification, focused on Northeast U.S. residential data collection and analysis to expand understanding of cold climate air source heat pumps (ccASHPs.
Why this study?
As you likely know, ccASHPs are important to our future. Reaching ambitious decarbonization targets will require:
- widespread electrification of thermal loads.
- improved performance of building enclosures.
- the ability to store or shift energy use with grid integration.
- supplying energy loads from zero emissions resources.
E4TheFuture co-funded the Residential ccASHP Building Electrification Study with MassCEC, NYSERDA, and U.S.DOE.
