A new partnership has been announced between Vaillant and energy supplier OVO whereby homeowners with a Vaillant aroTHERM or aroTHERM plus heat pump will be able to take advantage of lower running costs. Both new and existing customers will be able to take benefit, but they will also need an internet gateway, such as the myVAILLANT connect, which will provide access access to OVO’s ‘Heat Pump Plus’ energy plan.

Homeowners will have two separate rates – one for their heat pump, and one for the rest of their household energy usage  – and it is estimated that it will make heat pumps cheaper to run on average by £495 per year.

Henrik Juhl Hansen, Vaillant MD UK & Ireland, Vaillant, comments: “Having invested in low carbon technology for more than 25 years, our commitment to decarbonising UK homes remains strong. Through our investments in sustainable heating technologies, we are able to collaborate with OVO and are proud to be launching this new partnership making heat pumps more affordable across the UK. This new proposition will change the landscape for business, and consumers looking at decarbonising their home heating.”
