New data on UK heat pump sales by type

On the first day of Heat Pump Week 2024, the Heat Pump Association (HPA) published an update to its UK heat pump sales data, now featuring a breakdown by heat pump type for the first time. The newly segmented data provides insight into factory-gate sales of Air-to-Water monobloc units, Air-to-Water split units, Ground and Water Source units, and “other”- which includes Domestic Hot Water Heat Pumps, Exhaust Air Heat Pumps, and Integrated Hybrid Heat Pumps. This marks a step forward in the detail and accuracy of the HPA’s online statistics resource, launched in April 2024. Dating back to 2019, the data reveals a steady growth of all types of heat pumps between 2019 and 2022 and the dominance of Air-to-Water Monobloc units in the UK market.

This enhanced level of transparency reflects the HPA’s ongoing commitment to providing valuable information to the sector to support growth in the market. The detailed data will help to ensure that future policies align with the specific needs and growth patterns of different heat pump technologies.

Olivia Smalley, Head of Policy and Communications at the HPA, said: “As we work to accelerate the deployment of heat pumps across the UK, it’s vital to gain a deeper understanding of the UK Heat Pump Market. Providing this level of detail is a significant step towards greater transparency in the industry. Our members and stakeholders now have access to enhanced information to help them make more informed decisions, and this data will be vital in shaping targeted policies that drive growth and innovation across all heat pump technologies.”

These statistics will be updated annually to reflect the latest market trends and changes, ensuring that they remain a valuable resource for industry professionals, policymakers, and stakeholders alike.
