This compares to only <strong>around 10%<\/strong> which are assembled in China.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, the European Commission released its<strong> \u2018Industrial Accelerator Act\u2019,<\/strong> which aims to boost clean tech manufacturing in Europe, including of heat pumps.<\/p>\n<p>The proposed Act says hydronic heat pumps <strong>must originate in the EU three years<\/strong> after it enters into force, and the European Heat Pump Association\u2019s (EHPA) new data shows the sector <strong>already has a strong European manufacturing base.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>EHPA asked its members where the heat pumps they sold in Europe were manufactured; the captured results represent around 70% of the air to water market. For monoblocs, <strong>80-90%<\/strong> were assembled in Europe against 5-10% in China*. <strong>90-100% of indoor units were assembled<\/strong> in Europe, 5-10% in China. Assembly of these types of units have the highest value-add in the heat pump supply chain. For the outdoor units of the heat pump, around 40-50% were assembled in Europe, under 5% in China, 40-50% elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Paul Kenny, director general of the European Heat Pump Association <\/strong>said:<br \/>\n\u201cWant products \u2018made in Europe\u2019? The heat pump sector\u2019s already delivering. But its 300 factories <a href=\"https:\/\/data.europa.eu\/doi\/10.2760\/3976212\">could produce<\/a> over three times more heat pumps if the demand was there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGovernments must be encouraged to remove taxes from the electricity bill and put in place clear support for heat pump consumers \u2013 measures we know are crucial for spurring demand,\u201d said <strong>Kenny.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Europe has <a href=\"https:\/\/data.europa.eu\/doi\/10.2760\/3976212\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">capacity<\/a> to produce <strong>8 million heat pumps<\/strong>\u00a0a year, up from 2.5 million today. This would massively<strong> reduce our exposure to volatile gas price spikes which are set to drive inflation upwards.<\/strong> The fact that heat pumps are part of the Industrial Accelerator Act confirms they are seen as a sector key to European energy independence and strategic autonomy.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/ehpa.org\/news-and-resources\/press-releases\/heat-pump-sales-testify-to-government-action\/\">most recent sales figures<\/a>, released by EHPA on 2 March, show that across 16 countries heat pump sales grew in 2025 by 11%. This can clearly be linked to governments starting to tackle electricity tax levels and put in place longer term support.<\/p>\n<p>The Industrial Accelerator Act will be discussed and potentially amended by EU Member States and the EU Parliament before being finalised.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contact:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sarah Azau,<br \/>\nCommunications &amp; events director<br \/>\nsarah.azau@ehpa.org<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The vast majority of air to water heat pumps installed in Europe are assembled in Europe, new data from the European Heat Pump Association representing over two-thirds of the market reveals.
