Heatly’s Post

What a week for the net zero agenda! It’s great to see DESNZ making positive moves to deliver the Warm Homes Plan, which promises to upgrade 5 million homes over the next 5 years, including a notable £1.29 billion towards social housing. The measures announced today put the UK on track to achieving this target, while making heat pumps more affordable and accessible. I am particularly pleased to see the removal of the 1m rule, giving installers flexibility to deliver the best solution for each property and removing a major hurdle that might push homeowners away from heat pumps. The Clean Heat Market Mechanism provides much-needed clarity for the industry, encouraging investment and supporting the scaling up of heat pump supply chains. This time around, it seems that manufacturers have broadly welcomed the proposals, demonstrating the benefits of a collaborative approach to developing practical policies that balance industry needs with the UK's net zero goals GTEC Training and Heatly (both part of United Living Group) are really looking forward to supporting the mass adoption of heatpumps and the Decarbonistaion of heat in the UK Watch this space for more detail !
