Domestic hot water use is responsible for around a fifth of Australian residential greenhouse gas emissions.
As the Australian Government has committed to a 43% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030 and net zero by 2050, deploying electric domestic hot water technologies is critical to achieving these targets.
Learn how these technologies — heat pumps and electric storage — offer differing benefits in terms of efficiency, emissions reductions, costs, flexibility, and ease of retrofit.
