Climate change is essentially an energy issue. From the industrial revolution to the present, human society as a whole has used a great deal of energy, with fossil energy sources - oil, natural gas and coal - accounting for thevast majority.
From the perspective of the relationship between energy use and economic development, energy consumption and our standard of living show an almost linear relationship, especially in the field of building energy use.
Energy use in the building sector occupies a very large proportion of human life, and all of our daily necessities are related to energy. For a long time in the past, the Chinese people relied on fossil energy sources such as coal and natural gas to solve the problem of food and clothing, which undoubtedly exacerbated the consumption of resources and environmental pollution.
That's why we have proposed a carbon neutral and carbon peaking goal to mitigate climate change through measures such as controlling energy use and reducing carbon emissions in various fields.
One of the most notable strategies is to reduce the use of fossil energy and replace it with more clean energy.
We can see that new energy technologies represented by air source heat pumps have been growing rapidly in the past few years. According to the latest industry report, China is the only growing market among the major heat pump markets in the world with a 12% increase in sales in 2023. Following the current trajectory, air-source heat pump technology and its products will realize large-scale substitution all over the world.
You may be wondering the question: what are the characteristics of air source heat pump technology and why is it so helpful in achieving carbon neutrality globally? The leading brand in the air source heat pump industry, Underfloor Heating, is quoted here to explain.
Air source heat pump technology, a clean energy device, is used to address the summer cooling and winter heating needs of homes and commercial buildings. Air source heat pump products, using the principle of inverse Carnot cycle, through the compressor to convert the low-grade heat energy in the air into high-grade heat energy.
The operation process of underfloor heating units fully embodies the utilization of renewable energy and the concept of environmental protection. It does not require the loss of fossil energy, so it does not produce greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide during the working process, which is of great significance in reducing environmental pollution and alleviating global warming.
Air source heat pumps can penetrate into every home to solve the problems of cooling in summer and heating in winter, and continue to enhance the comfort and happiness of people's lives while satisfying the use of clean energy and reducing carbon emissions.

Air source heat pumps are gradually replacing traditional fossil energy heating methods globally due to their high efficiency, environmental friendliness and comfort.
With the continuous advancement of technology and the widespread popularization of its application, we believe that air-source heat pumps as well as underfloor heaters will play an even more important role in the carbon-neutral path of the future, contributing to the global response to the challenge of climate change.
