  "text": "For the purpose of this Decision, the following definitions apply:\n‘Qusable’ means the estimated total usable heat delivered by heat pumps, calculated as the product of the rated capacity for heating (Prated) and the annual equivalent heat pump hours (HHP), expressed in GWh;\n‘annual equivalent heat pump hours’ (HHP) means the assumed annual number of hours a heat pump has to provide heat at rated capacity to deliver the total usable heat delivered by heat pumps, expressed in h;\n‘rated capacity’ (Prated) means the cooling or heating capacity of the vapour compression cycle or sorption cycle of the unit at standard rating conditions;\n‘SPF’ shall mean the estimated average seasonal performance factor, which refers to the ‘net seasonal coefficient of performance in active mode’ (SCOPnet) for electrically driven heat pumps or ‘net seasonal primary energy ratio in active mode’ (SPERnet) for thermally driven heat pumps.",
