Original Note:
It is misinformation to state that heatpumps "outperform" fossil fuels. The study referenced by the article being shared, itself states that heat pumps cannot deliver sufficient heat at low temperatures, and require supplemental heating. This indicates poor performance. https://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(23)00351-3
