Hot Water, Justly Delivered: Powering Affordable Housing with HPWHs
2025-10-20 13:00 - 14:00 (America/New_York) | Virtual
Heat pump water heaters (HPWHs) are undoubtedly a promising pathway to sustainable, efficient hot water solutions. However, walking this path isn’t always easy, particularly for low-income housing communities. Join us in this pre-HPWH Day panel of experts from the field of affordable housing providers. These leaders will be sharing their real-world insights on how to ensure not only a clean energy transition, but also a ‘just’ one.
This session will focus on Central HPWH systems (CHPWHs) and cover experiences and learnings in implementing projects that switch from fossil-fueled water heaters to HPWHs, navigating installation and maintenance, securing diverse funding sources, and fostering stakeholder engagement at various levels, making HPWHs a part of a healthy, sustainable community life.

Go Go, Stop Stop! Charging up and curtailing HPWHs to minimize costs and maximize clean energy uptake

With their ability to use energy flexibly and act as small thermal batteries, heat pump water heaters (HPWHs) can “charge” during off-peak times with cheaper, cleaner electricity – doing so saves homeowners money and reduces grid congestion and emissions. In this session, we’ll examine key takeaways from HPWH load shifting studies and programs in 2025 and where the building industry is headed.

Heat Pump Water Heater Day
2025-10-23 11:00 - 17:00
Join us October 23, 2025 for the fourth annual Heat Pump Water Heater Day where we will celebrate the greatest hot water machine ever assembled! Heat Pump Water Heater Day is an entire day dedicated to heat pump water heater education and awareness on residential and commercial heat pump water heaters, with special events during the week leading up to the big day. We know that collectively we have the power to create a clean energy, low-carbon future.
On Heat Pump Water Heater Day we connect with advocates, manufacturers, installers, homebuilders, and HPWH owners to showcase ENERGY STAR certified HPWHs and the ways they help us increase energy efficiency and fight climate change. So we ask, how will you help bring about the future we need right now? Join us on Heat Pump Water Heater Day!
