Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether his Department plans to extend the Boiler Upgrade Scheme to (a) hybrid heat pump technologies and (b) other multi technology solutions.

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme does not currently support hybrid heat pumps, as we want to direct the available funding towards the technologies that offer the greatest carbon savings, rather than those which would continue to involve the burning of fossil fuels for heating and hot water.

The Government is committed to incentivising moves to cleaner, more affordable heating, and will keep its position on alternative heating technologies (including multi-technology solutions) under review and make further assessments as the supporting evidence base develops.
