Can solar panels be connected to a heat pump?

Yes, solar panels can be combined with a heat pump. Solar panels produce electricity with the help of sunlight, and this electricity can be used, for example, as the driving force of a heat pump. The heat pump, on the other hand, collects thermal energy from the environment and efficiently transfers it to, for example, heating the house or producing hot domestic water.

When solar panels and a heat pump are combined, solar energy can be used more efficiently and dependence on traditional energy sources can be reduced. This can also save energy costs and reduce the burden on the environment.
