Here in Germany, people usually use hydronic heating and it’s probably gonna stay that way. However, people are waking up to the reality that A/C systems are becoming more relevant, so some people have started to install split A/Cs for heating and cooling. I think there are no subsidies for that though.
there are also recuperation systems, In Slovakia it’s now mandatory in new houses AFAIK (mate just built a house).
I think water floor heating + invertable AC (aka bidirectional heat pump) are a good solution.
though you need to be aware of the added maintenance and cleaning cost of ACs.
