Report: Reduced Carbon Emissions from Multifamily Buildings Due to Efficient Electric Water Heating The Ecovantage and New Buildings Institute report calls for policymakers to ramp up efforts so that building owners may replace old equipment with more efficient electric Hot Water Heat Pumps. This is seen as a key climate opportunity because it would reduce greenhouse gas emissions while at the same time cutting utility bills! Report on Carbon Emissions From Multifamily Buildings Heating water efficiently is critical because heating uses up more energy than space in multifamily buildings with five or more units. The new analysis shows that converting gas-fired heaters to advanced technology—electric HPWHs—would cut the greenhouse gases these systems are responsible for by an average of 58%. If powered entirely from clean sources, this means zero emissions, making them a key tool when it comes down to Decarbonizing our economy!

The high cost and availability of these new technologies mean that building owners will likely remain hesitant to invest in them. Still, there’s been little incentive from policymakers or anyone else who has authority over the issue at hand – until now! Tenants can’t afford their energy bills without a solution for this problem. Heat pumps are the best way to cut your electricity bill by shifting when you use them! For example, if solar production increases during morning hours, heat pump filters can be used at noon so that less energy is needed for cooling. HPWH can store solar energy for days or even months with the right materials and installation. This new research shows that these systems could potentially be capable of holding 3.5 terawatt-hours—the amount used by 325 thousand homes in one year! The report finds many challenges when replacing gas products with HPWHs in multifamily buildings. They can be most cost-effective where electricity prices or natural gas rates remain high at large temperature ranges below freezing point (-40 degrees Fahrenheit). Federal incentives like tax credits for purchasing clean energy systems will help adoption happen faster across all industries, while regional utility policies may become more incentive-driven over time too! This new version of this important legislation will provide rebates and larger tax credits for installing high-performance water heaters (HPWHs) or other efficient equipment at home; it’s only fitting then that we take advantage while these incentives last! Installing in-home Hot Water Heat Pumps is a smart choice for multifamily homeowners, but only if offered the right incentives. Many utilities provide gifts and grants to entice residents to build with these systems; however, there’s little support available when it comes time to transition from fossil fuels – which many states restrict or ban outright!
