Heat pump installations are expected to increase from 55,000 per year to 600,000 per year by 2028.<\/p>\n<h3>Heat pumps are far more efficient than gas heating<\/h3>\n<p>Although the UK government has set<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/energy-news\/decarbonise-uk-public-buildings-five-times-faster-reach-net-zero-targets-report-warns\/122910\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> a deadline of 2050 to achieve net-zero emissions<\/a>, 88% of homes in the country still rely on natural gas for heating, which accounts for almost a quarter (23%) of the nation&#8217;s total greenhouse gas emissions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/energy-news\/heat-pumps-are-three-times-more-efficient-than-gas-boilers-only-18-of-engineers-know-how-to-install-them-studies-show\/122909\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Heat pumps are highly efficient<\/a>, with an efficiency rate of around 400%. For each unit of electricity consumed, four units of thermal energy are produced. At best, conventional heaters offer an efficiency of up to 100% efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>The new team will aim to improve <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitalenergi.co.uk\/our-work\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vital Energi&#8217;s internal capabilities<\/a>, allowing them to design, specify and implement heat pump energy solutions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe energy market is changing at pace, and through strengthening our in-house expertise, we\u2019re demonstrating our market-leading capability and ensuring we can meet the needs of our customers in an agile manner,\u201d said Ashley Malin, managing director of Vital Energi.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe addition of the new team not only enhances our heat pump capability but ensures we have the right skills to create energy infrastructure for our future,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<h3>The team will develop new technology for the heat pump market<\/h3>\n<p>A team of ten skilled experts in refrigeration, air conditioning and the heat pump industry will join the team. The new recruits have a combined total of 140 years of experience. The team has extensive knowledge in areas such as thermodynamics, vapour compression, heat exchange, system modelling, software programming, field service and commissioning.<\/p>\n<p>The team will be led by engineering director, Chris Green, and technical director, Patrick Knight.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to managing assets and optimising the performance of their ground, water, and air source heat pump installations, the team will also invest in research and development.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vital Energi they will offer solutions to their clients by delivering services, products and technologies that support the heat pump market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":27,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[307],"tags":[714,93645],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-126227","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-energy-news","7":"tag-heating","8":"tag-net-zero"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Vital Energi employ specialist team amid heat pump market growth<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Vital Energi they will offer solutions to their clients by delivering services, products and technologies that support the heat pump market\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/energy-news\/vital-energi-employ-specialist-team-amid-heat-pump-market-growth\/126227\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Vital Energi employ specialist team amid growth of heat pump market\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Vital Energi they will offer solutions to their clients by delivering services, products and technologies that support the heat pump market.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/energy-news\/vital-energi-employ-specialist-team-amid-heat-pump-market-growth\/126227\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
