This course provides Property Owners, Developers, and Asset Managers with essential knowledge on using heat pumps to support decarbonization in commercial buildings, focusing on Class B and C properties, business case development, and basic technical design considerations for operational management. These buildings, often older and in need of efficiency upgrades, offer significant potential for energy and carbon reduction.
