Electrification poses significant peak load challenges to the grid. This seminar covers information on how absorption heat pumps or other heat operated system used for cooling and heating can assist improve overall efficiency, promote decarbonization and reduce peak electric loads, and on how carbon emissions evaluations are impacted by these technologies.
