By using a peak load auxiliary heating system, oversizing of the heat pump can be avoided. Oil and gas peak load boilers are standard today but should be replaced in the future due to their CO2 emissions and measures to fight climate change. The utilization of biomass as an energy source is comparatively more complex and domestic biomass resources are already largely exhausted. Energy carriers X, which are produced based on renewable electricity (Power-to-X), could replace fossil-fueled peak load coverage in the future.
