Summary
Heat pump sales across Europe have surged, providing as much heat as LNG carried by over 200 tankers — double the amount that arrived from the Middle East in 2025. According to the European Heat Pump Association (EHPA), this represents about 7% of the EU's total annual imported LNG and saved €9.7 billion in import costs last year. The technology is helping households cope with high gas prices amid geopolitical tensions.
