Flaring is an *oil* production issue. Now, replacing our heating oil with natural gas, like NYC is doing, would be a good thing.https://twitter.com/brucenilles/status/1078377435693867008 …

Heat pumps are unsuitable for replacing heavy fuel oil boilers.
We don't have "heavy fuel oil" in New York City. I worked hard, with others, to ban it years ago. In any case, heat pumps are a fine replacement for oil heat. Oil heat replacement is most of the geothermal heat pump business today. Gas comes next.

Ah, I had missed the announcement about the remaining heavy fuel oil being converted. Good for NYC.

In NYC, #6 oil is banned now. #4 oil ends in 2030 at the latest (we are trying to accelerate that). #2 oil must now be ultra-low sulfur diesel. NYC air is cleaner than in 50 years due to reduced PM2.5.
