The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what estimate his department makes of the number of retrofits underway.

Answered by Martin McCluskey

In 2025-2026 alone, we will be upgrading up to 300,000 homes, using around £1 billion of Warm Homes Plan money, and further support through the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) and the Great British Insulation Scheme (GBIS). This is more than double the number of home upgrades delivered in 2023/24.
