Some models can benefit from night storage capacity, so heating a bettery over night at a lower tariff, but also with the ability to run ans normal but high efficiency day rate heaters.

It aimed to replace inefficient technologies with energy-efficient products to reduce energy consumption in homes and achieve carbon reduction targets. Manufacturers had to incorporate intelligent controls in their products, such as temperature controls, timers, presence detection, adaptive start control, distance control functions, and open window detection. Non-compliant heaters could not be supplied or installed in EU member states, so led to the introduction of more energy-efficient products with intelligent controls, requiring manufacturers to increase the efficiency of their components without raising costs. In effect HHRs are more efficient night storage heaters.
