The MCSCF heat-pump lab

Shift-0 is a research project, led by the University of Oxford and supported by MCS Charitable Foundation

Our aims are to

How it works

We access anonymised smart meter data from consenting participants and compare electricity and gas usage before and after heat pump installations. The differences can help us to understand when heat pumps are performing well and under what conditions additional measured can improve their performance.
