Large amount of protocols in the heat pump industry hinders easy implementation of energy management systems

Unfortunately, there is no single way for remotely controlling new heat pumps yet, nor is there a trend in that direction, according to the 'Flexmonitor Heat pumps' report. This hampers the possibilities of easily and quickly deploying heatpumps for a reliable electricity supply and creates unnecessary costs and complexity to use energy management systems.

Fortunately, the vast majority of heat pumps do support smart energy services. FAN and TKI Urban Energy therefore aim to use one standard for all energy management applications so that 80% of the market volume uses the same open energy management standard by the end of 2024.

We really need to work towards standardisation for the large-scale deployment of energy management for heat pumps, is the appeal of the FAN foundation.
