From Undecided with Matt Ferrell.

Why Ice Might Be the Future of Heating. Go to https://surfshark.com/undecided for 4 extra months of Surfshark. Heat from ice? It sounds like a joke—or maybe a paradox. But what if the future of warm, cozy homes lies in freezing water? As outlandish as it seems, an English research team is working on a heat pump that runs off actual ice … well, more like slushies. It’s a serious effort to tackle one of our biggest energy challenges: how to affordably convert buildings over to high efficiency electric heat pumps. But how can an ice source heat pump raise temperatures through freezing?
