<u>Underlined</u> system efficiencies are combinations with a lower efficiency than combustion or optimal heat capture for heating (eg oil boiler, wood burning).
'''Bold''' is the dividing line where the combination gives a higher efficiency than the theoretical maximum for combustion alone or heat capture for heating (100%).
