如果英国要实现到2050年将温室气体（GHG）排放量减少到1990年水平的80%以下的宏伟目标，在英国国内部门提高能源效率和引进更新、更高效的空间和热水技术是必不可少的。尽管电动或燃气发动机驱动的蒸汽压缩热泵可以提供加热和冷却的效率是传统锅炉的两倍以上，但英国国内部门目前严重依赖传统的空间和水加热锅炉。英国政府最近出台了法律和政策，旨在加速国内消费者对可再生供暖技术的采用，而不是仅仅依靠市场力量。迄今为止，尽管它们性能优异，热泵并不是一般英国国内消费者的主要选择。本文对可能影响这种行为的因素进行了分析和讨论。
Enhancement of energy efficiency and introduction of newer and more efficient space and water heating technologies in the UK domestic sector are essential if the UK is to achieve its ambitious target for 2050 of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to less than 80% of 1990 levels. The UK domestic sector currently relies heavily on conventional boilers for space and water heating even though electric or gas engine driven vapour compression heat pumps can provide heating and cooling with more than double the efficiency of conventional boilers. UK government has recently introduced laws and policies that are designed to accelerate the uptake of renewable heating technologies by domestic consumers rather than relying solely on market forces. To date despite their excellent performance heat pumps are not the primary choice of the general UK domestic consumer. Factors that may influence this behaviour have been analysed and are discussed here.
