In Stream 1, Phase 2, the selected project teams will be following their innovative methodology, working together with their identified key stakeholders and decision makers, to test the effectiveness of their innovative methodology. Through the trial of each project’s innovative methodology for the coordination of high-density heat pump deployment, BEIS expects project teams to deliver:

  • Cost-savings relative to current average deployment costs for domestic heat pumps.
  • High-density deployment of domestic heat pumps3 – i.e. transition a large proportion of domestic consumers within a single area over a short period of time (before the end of the trial project, end November 2024).
  • An enhanced ‘consumer journey’ – providing high levels of consumer satisfaction throughout the deployment.
