Title: Air Source Heat Pump cost data Content: What should be included in this category? Investment cost of the technology and installation of a heat pump. Note, all costs are in KW of heat delivered net of conversion losses. What should be excluded from this category? Non-market costs, such as hassle costs How are these costs used in the 2050 Pathways model? Domestic - Assume an average installation size of 14KW per household and use the investment cost per kw to derive a cost of a heat pump per household. Please see: IX.a Domestic space heating and hot water costs for the full methodology Commercial - Multiply the investment cost per kw by the load factor (typical annual average output) then uprate to give a cost per TWh (annual) of meeting commercial heating demand. This figure is then multiplied by 2 to account for peak load.
