The Government’s position is not to force anyone to rip out a working boiler and will incentivise moves to cleaner, affordable heating.
The Government has started delivery of the Warm Homes Plan, which will offer grants and low interest loans to support investment in insulation, heat pumps and other home improvements to cut bills.
More detail will be set out in due course.
