Description
Objective of this project is to demonstrate how a Hybrid Heating System with Smart Controls installed in approximately 75 homes can achieve a reduction in energy consumption and GHG emissions.
In addition, the project is intended to:
In addition, the project is intended to:
- Create awareness with homeowners/HVAC contractors/manufacturers to better understand key benefits and future market potential of Hybrid Heating with smart controls.
- Identify barriers and potential solutions (i.e. training, economics, performance, acceptance, supply chain).
- Measure homeowner acceptance such as, their experience and learning.
- Understand how homeowners prefer to operate the system (i.e. GHG reduction, cost reduction)
- Share program pilot results with key stakeholders to support a collaborative industry effort to accelerate adoption of Hybrid Heating Systems that exceed 100% energy efficiency as per NRCan’s Market Transformation Roadmap to 2030 goals.
Scope
