| heat pump (A device which transfers heat from a cooler reservoir to a hotter one, expending mechanical energy in the process, especially when the main purpose is to heat the hot reservoir rather than refrigerate the cold one) | varmepumpe | |
| heat storage (Keeping heat created during a period of low consumption until a peak period when it is needed) | varmelagring | |
| heat supply (The provision of heating fuel, coal or other heating source materials, or the amount of heating capacity, for the use of a municipality, or other heat user) | varmeforsyning | |
