Octopus has rapidly expanded its heat pump activities since entering the market in 2021, now leading the UK as the top heat pump installer. The successful launch of its air-source heat pump, the ‘Cosy 6’, last year has fuelled this growth.
Fuelling growth
With heat pump demand skyrocketing over 20-fold in the past year, Octopus’ new partnership programme will refer customers to trusted local installers for installations they can’t currently handle. This initiative aims to get cost-saving heating products to customers faster while creating new business opportunities for local installers.
The programme will establish a network of trusted, verified installers authorised to install Octopus products, ensuring more homes benefit from money-saving tech quickly.
Heat Geek has joined as a trusted partner of Octopus, automatically giving all installers on the Heat Geek network access to the enhanced referral benefit and the ability to receive leads from Octopus.
Engaging with the heat pump market
Heat Geek empowers the largest community of independent installers to engage in the heat pump market. It equips them with the training and tools needed to design and install heat pump systems to the highest quality level.
Over 2,000 heating engineers have used Heat Geek’s multi-award winning training platform already, with more joining every day.
Bringing clean heating to homes
Greg Jackson, founder of Octopus Energy, said: “As an entrepreneur, I’m in awe of anyone who gets up each day to run their own business. As the largest installer of heat pumps in the UK, we’re committed to bringing clean heating to as many homes as possible – but we can’t do it alone.
“I’m delighted to announce ‘Octopus Trusted Partners’, and Heat Geek as our primary partner – working together to get a heat pump for everyone who wants one, and unlocking cheaper greener power for all.”
Aadil Qureshi, CEO of Heat Geek, said: “Decarbonising home heating is absolutely critical if we are to tackle climate change. Octopus has an incredible job of making homeowners aware of heat pumps and drive up adoption.
“We share their belief that no customer who wants a heat pump end up with a boiler. That’s why we’re delighted to add Heat Geek to their trusted network of installers.”
