A week of webinars on heat pumps from the HPA UK and Nineteen Group. Covers basics, commercial, industrial, and policy like the Warm Homes Plan. Worth a look if you are in the UK supply chain.

The schedule is pretty packed. Myth busting session and the one on talking to customers could be useful for installers who still get pushback. The industrial heat pump webinar is less common to see at these events.

Industrial heat pumps are interesting but the UK grid capacity for mass electrification of heat is still a bottleneck. Would like to see more on how these webinars address interconnection timelines and peak load management.

The Warm Homes Plan and Future Homes Standard sessions are the ones to watch for policy details. The real test is whether the regulations actually drive installation rates or just add paperwork. Need to see the fine print on compliance timelines.

The installer first pump session and the case studies are the most practical part of this. Theory is fine but the UK needs more people who have actually done a heat pump install. The Start at Home scheme is a good nudge for hesitant engineers.
