Abstract:
The EU H2020 project REPLACE (Contract No. 847087) aims to boost the phase-out of inefficient and old heating and cooling systems by targeting consumers, investors/owners as well as intermediaries (installers, plumbers, and chimney sweepers) and helps them to make independently informed decisions. All activities proposed by REPLACE aim to inform and motivate consumers to replace their old and inefficient HC appliances with better, greener alternatives with the benefit of monetary savings and improvements in air-quality, comfort, safety, and security of supply. REPLACE also addresses fuel poverty and reduces the risk of a heating crisis by supporting the use of regional renewable energy sources (such as solar, ambient heat or biomass) and equipment produced in the EU (biomass boilers, heat pumps, solar collectors, DH equipment).
