Social warmth: TKI Urban Energy installs 25 Flint heat pumps

18 September 2025

Smart heat pumps make social housing upgrades affordable and achievable. TKI Urban Energy shows how 25 homes were made more sustainable intelligently.

Heat pumps for social housing

All 25 homes in the pilot received a Weheat Flint heat pump! Our competitively priced Flint opens up the market. Like our other models, it is all-electric ready and equipped with Weheat Intelligence. The technology lowers energy costs and CO₂ emissions, while smart algorithms help homes and entire neighbourhoods coordinate heat demand.

A pilot involving 25 homes in Gemert shows how smart heat pumps deliver lower energy bills, greater comfort and a solution to grid congestion.

TKI Urban Energy showcases the project

TKI Urban Energy is a non-profit organisation encouraging, connecting and supporting Dutch companies and research institutions in developing and applying innovations for a rapid transition to a sustainable, reliable and affordable energy system in the built environment.

Going gas-free is the best approach to energy poverty

The choice of heat pumps is well founded. TNO research shows that more households risk energy poverty, with social housing residents often among the hardest hit.

TNO stresses that renovation and sustainability improvements are key to addressing this structurally. Heat pumps play an important role: combined with good insulation, they significantly lower bills, improve comfort and reduce fossil-fuel dependence.

Social housing renovation programmes therefore reduce energy poverty while accelerating the energy transition.

Sustainable collaboration, sustainable future

Weheat’s strength lies in its products and, especially, its collaborative approach: direct communication, real support and openness to feedback. Together with installers and partners, it builds tomorrow’s smart solutions.
