The latest in the IOR Tip of the Iceberg podcasts that discuss issues around how the industry is moving towards net zero is now available. In this podcast, IOR President Graeme Fox argues the case for heat pumps as a critical part of the net zero agenda. He looks at the challenges of greater integration not just of heating and cooling but also joined-up thinking by engineers, designers and policymakers. The recovery and integration of waste heat and a correct understanding of how heat pumps can be part of the solution is an integral element of the IOR’s Beyond Refrigeration template that helps end users track their progress from where they are now to where they need to work towards net zero.
The podcast is an extract of a talk given in December 2022 and includes a question and answer session chaired by Dermot Cotter on behalf of the Institute of Refrigeration.
