Heating

The European Geothermal Energy Council (EGEC) welcomes the European Commission’s review of the energy labelling and Ecodesign requirements for space and combination heaters. These revisions are both timely and necessary to reflect technological progress and ensure consistency with EU climate objectives. EGEC considers the review a key opportunity to correct long-standing shortcomings affecting geothermal heat pumps (GHPs), whose performance has historically been misrepresented due to outdated and unrealistic testing assumptions.
