Boilers Asked by: Lord Strathcarron (Non-affiliated - Excepted Hereditary) Tuesday 17th February 2026 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask His Majesty's Government how they arrived at the estimate in the Clean Energy Campaign that it costs approximately £2,000 a year to heat a typical three-bedroom house with a gas boiler; and what assessment they have made of the accuracy of Ofgem’s estimate of the cost of heating a typical three-bedroom house with a gas boiler. Answered by Lord Whitehead - Minister of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) The cost estimates used in the Clean Energy Campaign are based on the total energy for a home with a gas boiler including both gas and electricity costs (e.g. for lighting and appliances). Details for the assumptions behind the analysis are provided in the section marked “*How we calculated heat pump savings” on the campaign web page https://cleanenergy.campaign.gov.uk/heat-pump/. The analysis in the campaign assumed an annual gas demand of 12,200kWh, which is well aligned to OFGEM’s ‘Medium’ typical domestic consumption value of 11,500kWh.
Hive Energy: Loans Asked by: Lord Strathcarron (Non-affiliated - Excepted Hereditary) Monday 2nd March 2026 Question to the Department for Business and Trade: To ask His Majesty's Government whether they knew in November 2025, when Hive Energy Ltd secured a £60 million loan from HSBC guaranteed by UK Export Finance, that it was close to bankruptcy; who authorised the loan on behalf of His Majesty's Government; and what due diligence was performed in connection with this. Answered by Lord Stockwood - Minister of State (HM Treasury) This transaction was originally underwritten in 2023 and renewed in 2025 by UKEF. As with all its transactions, UKEF applied its rigorous risk criteria and continues to monitor Hive Energy. UKEF provided Hive Energy with a General Export Facility alongside Hive’s partner bank, with which it shares the risk of default. UKEF charges a commercial, risk-based premium and operates at no net cost to the taxpayer over the economic cycle – returning £146 million in profit to the Exchequer in the last financial year.
