Decarbonising heating in buildings

Heat pumps and district heating are key to phase out fossil fuels for heating in buildings. Our Success Stories video shows how Norway has successfully decarbonised heating and cooling in buildings by subsidizing heat pumps, heavily taxing fossil fuels for heating, constructing district heating facilities and imposing a ban on fossil-fuel boilers. Norway’s government set out to replace the remaining share of fossil-based heating for buildings with clean solutions by 2020 and the country has achieved a near-complete decarbonisation of heating in the buildings sector.
