2019 Air Source Heat Pump Market Transformation Workshop

Air Source Heat Pump Market Transformation Workshop

Heat Pumps, Smart Controls, VRFs, Oh my!

NEEP invites you to explore how the region can work collaboratively to accelerate the adoption of air source heat pumps (ASHP) and variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems. These renewable heating and cooling technologies are increasingly seen as important solutions to a low-carbon future in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic region and beyond. These technologies, and others, will transform the way we heat and cool our homes and businesses.

This event will convene a diverse group of key stakeholders from across the ASHP/VRF markets, including manufacturers, program administrators, installers, technology experts, state/local policy makers, and others to coordinate effective implementation of regional market transformation strategies. Market transformation strategy reports for ASHP and VRF, developed through NEEP’s ASHP and Smart Controls Initiative, will provide frameworks of key strategies for stakeholders to discuss, explore, and debate.

Purpose:

• Explore the role of ASHP/VRF technologies in the context of current policy environment
• Coordinate effective implementation of market transformation strategies for air source heat pump (ASHP) and variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems
• Share best practices, lessons learned, and success stories related to promotion of ASHP and VRF systems
• Explore best practices related to quality assurance efforts for ASHP and VRF installations

Draft Early Agenda

Lodging and transportation

This year, we will again partner with travel company TripZero (a Certified B Corp) to offset the carbon footprint created by travel to our event. Attendees can book the Crowne Plaza Boston-Woburn for $159, and by booking these hotel rooms, we collectively enable TripZero to offset the carbon footprint created by our travel – at no cost to you. Book your room at the Crowne Plaza now. Through the purchase of certified carbon offsets, TripZero funds reforestation and renewable energy projects that remove pollution from the atmosphere. As these projects offset the impact of our travel, they also create lots of benefits for local communities. Learn more here.
