Heat Pump Running Cost
Enter your annual useful heat demand, assumed seasonal COP (SCOP), and electricity price per kWh. The calculator divides heat demand by SCOP, then multiplies electricity use by your price.
- Estimated annual electricity use
- Estimated annual electricity cost
A QUICK WALKTHROUGH
How to use this tool
- Enter annual useful heat demand in kWh.
- Enter your seasonal COP and electricity price per kWh.
- Calculate annual electricity use and cost.
Your assumptions
SCOP is the assumed ratio of useful heat delivered to electricity consumed over a season. Use an assumption appropriate to your own records; this tool does not retrieve tariffs, weather, or equipment performance.
Estimate scope
The result covers only electricity represented by your heat demand and SCOP, in the currency of your rate. It excludes standing charges, maintenance, installation, and other costs. It does not predict actual performance or size equipment.
GOOD TO KNOW
Common questions
Is this a guaranteed running cost?
No. It is arithmetic based on your inputs. Actual heat demand, seasonal performance, and prices can differ.
