Everything you need to know about HPR

Heat Pumps & Renewables (HPR) is the go-to information hub for professional installers, specifiers, engineers, manufacturers and suppliers working with low-carbon heat and energy technologies in the UK.

We share the news, ideas, interviews and data that guide our community through one of the fastest-moving sectors in British construction and building services. From heat pumps and solar PV to battery storage, hydrogen and EV charging, HPR delivers the latest industry news, in-depth technical features, expert opinion, real-world case studies and training updates, in print, online and straight to your inbox.

Two trusted titles, one joined-up journal

Heat Pumps & Renewables was created when two established trade titles, Heat Pumps Today and Renewable Energy Installer, merged. Installers, specifiers and engineers increasingly work across several technologies at once, fitting a heat pump alongside solar panels, a battery and an EV charger, and they told us they wanted a single source that reflects how the industry really works.

HPR is that source: a broader editorial scope, a fresh visual identity and the combined expertise of both editorial teams. Readers of either previous title now receive HPR automatically, so nobody misses an issue. HPR is published by Warners Group Publications Limited, a specialist publisher of trade and consumer titles.

Every technology in the low-carbon home and building

Our focus is the installation of renewable and low-carbon technologies: what they are, how they work together and how to fit them well.

Practical, independent journalism for the people delivering net zero

Every article is written with the working professional in mind: the engineer planning their next heat pump install, the electrician adding solar and storage to their services, the specifier comparing systems for a new development, and the business owner keeping up with policy, grants and regulation.

Alongside the latest industry news, we publish case studies from real projects, training and certification updates, and profiles of the companies and people shaping the market.
