The Chinese government has put forth a policy to convert the northern regions of the country, where coal-burning heaters are common, from coal to electricity, and is offering incentives for electricity-driven heat pump heaters. Demand for heat pumps has been rising sharply as a result, in applications from residential to commercial and industrial. The expo sponsors set up a heat pump pavilion with sections highlighting innovative products, excellent installation cases, heat pump applications in industrial fields, and clean heat supply after switching from coal to electricity.
