It’s a second attempt to get new house build to use only ‘carbon free’ heating. As Peter says, it was added to the building regs a while ago, but the date has now been put back to 2025.
Gas hobs still allowed, so maybe a little creative thinking needed to use one for heating as well! Presume oil already off or also off the list?
Will make house battery storage units such as the T***a
Powerwall more popular. I know someone who already has them installed, and together with solar panels and ‘heat recovery’ heating, they are almost self sufficient at times.
I would love the opportunity and money to build a new home with all the latest energy saving technology built in. One day......
