We're making progress - but there's still a way to go towards clean heat targets.
We've set out 8⃣ steps the new government can take to supercharge heat pump deployment electrifyheat.uk/briefing/pr…
UK demand for air-source heat pumps is booming, up 86% year-on-year in June 2024
(fair to say it's still a long way off 600k/yr target)

Labour have pledged a new retrofit loan scheme, but what could this look like in practice?
@LeoGDVincent’s latest report examines similar schemes from around the world and asks why the UK needs a home upgrade loan scheme, and how one could be designed.

Climate change is the most urgent issue of our times: it didn’t even merit a 45-second soundbite in debate on Tue! Heat pumps have a role to play as part of big picture along with upgrading poorly insulated homes to ensure cheaper bills. @RetrofitRuss @ArchitectsCAN @Ed_Miliband

5⃣ Heat pumps are super-efficient!
Heat pumps are at least 3x as efficient as a gas boiler, with the best 5x as efficient. Air source heat pumps are typically 200-400% efficient: meaning you get 2-4kWh of heat for every 1kWh of electricity to run the pump 😲

Great new report from @IPPR highlights that British manufacturers are particularly specialised at making heat pump components - with economic opportunities spread across the UK!
