Part 7/9:
In Europe, where grids are increasingly powered by renewable energy, the shift toward electric heating is not just favorable but essential for promoting cleaner energy solutions. While some may argue that electric heating may temporarily rely on coal or gas-generated electricity, Michael emphasizes that over time, the increasing efficiencies and investments in renewables will make the grid greener.
Moreover, the move towards POU water heaters contributes positively to energy security. Europe faces challenges related to the scarcity of natural gas. By utilizing electricity—especially from renewable sources—displaces reliance on gas, thus stabilizing and enhancing energy security in the long run.
