The significant effort to create the data base and to find case studies from (so far) five countries should not be terminated with the end of the Annex 50. This is in particular in the light of the fact that several countries are currently in the process of completing new cases.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"container container--no-margin\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Following objectives from the Annex 50 should be continued:<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"container container--no-margin\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Extension of the <a href=\"https:\/\/heatpumpingtechnologies.org\/annex50\/case-studies\/\">case studies database<\/a> (current situation: about 20 examples described).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Extension of the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/heatpumpingtechnologies.org\/annex50\/solution-matrix\/\">matrix tool<\/a>\u201d, especially further description of each general concept with the aim of finding and establishing standard solutions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Implementation (for example in form of an app) and extension of the tool \u201csolution finder\u201d with the aim of creating an easy-to-use pre-planning tool, allowing for a quick recognition of possible heat pump solutions for specific cases<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"container container--no-margin\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Following new or not yet sufficiently addressed topics should be covered by the new Annex:<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"container container--no-margin\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><em> Heat sources.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"container container--no-margin\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The main implementation problem of heat pumps in high-density cities can potentially be the connection to a heat source. There is a need to identify a robust and proofed solution helping the wide application of heat pumps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"container container--no-margin\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><em> Standardized solutions<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"container container--no-margin\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Standardized solutions are necessary to allow implementation of heat pumps on a large scale. The international Annex work should help to identify and establish these solutions. To increase future acceptance, all subject typically involved in the deciding, planning and execution<br>process, should be included (such as housing companies).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"container container--no-margin\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><em>Quarters solutions<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"container container--no-margin\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For cities it is meaningful to search solutions for whole quarters or for groups of buildings.

Furthermore, solutions can also vary when applied from a broader perspective &#8211; central district (local) heating solutions using the new or existing heat distribution network powered by a heat pump, versus decentral single solutions for each building.
