National Heat Pump Week to launch in October 2026
The Heat Pump Association UK (HPA UK) and Nineteen Group, organiser of InstallerSHOW and elementalLONDON will launch National Heat Pump Week this October, a new national campaign designed to accelerate the UK’s transition to heat pumps.
Running from 12th October to 16th October 2026, National Heat Pump Week will provide a pivotal moment for all those in the heat pump sector to share knowledge, insights and expertise. With a combined reach of more than 1,000,000 built environment professionals, the campaign will deliver its impact through a series of webinars, articles, interviews, competitions and market insights from key industry figures.
National Heat Pump Week will aim to:
- Increase understanding and confidence in heat pumps
- Showcase real installations, innovation and consumer stories
- Provide a platform for the sector
- Create a coordinated week for media and political engagement
- Provide learning and opportunities for installers and others across the supply chain
Themes for the week include:
- Technology and performance – clearing up the basics and busting the common myths
- Commercial and industrial heat – expanding the opportunity in commercial and industrial markets
- Policy, markets and scale – connecting policy with progress and industry action
- Demand and confidence – bridging knowledge to action and accelerating uptake
- Installation and skills – practical, real-world insight from installers in the field
As the UK moves towards clean power by 2030 and net zero emissions by 2050, heat pumps are set to play a central role in decarbonising homes and buildings, evident in the Government’s Warm Homes Plan.
Commenting on the launch of National Heat Pump Week, Olivia Smalley, Head of Policy and Communications at the Heat Pump Association UK said:
“National Heat Pump Week is set to be a great opportunity for the sector to unite to celebrate how far it’s come to date and how much further we can go. The week will provide a dedicated moment to share technical insights, policy developments and key learnings as we transition to heat pumps.”
Also commenting on the launch of the week, Joe Sharpe, Head of Content for Installer at Nineteen Group, said:
“We’re thrilled to be supporting the UK’s first-ever National Heat Pump Week. The heat pump transition has already begun, and this week will provide plenty of opportunities for HPA UK members, manufacturers, suppliers and the wider industry to get involved to show their support and help drive adoption of this important technology as we move towards net zero.”
