This report analyzes the economics and potential benefits of replacing fossil fuel water heaters with heat pump water heaters in multifamily buildings. Our analysis found that these retrofits could potentially save 175 trillion Btus per year, eliminate 6.5 million metric tons of GHG emissions, and provide 3.5 terawatt hours of potential load-shifting benefits to the electric grid. This report also describes existing and emerging heat pump water heater technologies for multifamily buildings, outlines supportive policies and utility programs, and provides recommendations for increasing the adoption of heat pump water heaters in multifamily buildings.

Utility energy efficiency programs have increased investment in low-income households, but significant gaps remain. This report examines spending and savings trends across 48 major U.S. utilities, identifies barriers to expanding low-income programs and highlights policies and program strategies that can improve energy affordability and equitable access to efficiency upgrades.
This report identifies pathways for India’s cement industry to decarbonise at a pace compatible with the national climate goal of net-zero emissions by 2070.
The United States faces interlocking energy challenges: rising home energy bills and gasoline prices; new demand for electricity from data centers and other loads; high greenhouse gas emissions from burning fossil fuels.
Now, a new era of energy efficiency progress in our buildings, transportation, and industry is needed to meet this moment. This wide-ranging study finds a massive opportunity.
