Renewable Fuels: Rural Areas
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what assessment his Department has made of the potential impact of renewable liquid gases on rural, off grid households, particularly those in park home communities.
Answered by Martin McCluskey
The government launched a consultation on 18 November to explore alternative clean heating solutions that may play a role in some homes, including off gas grid households. The solutions explored included renewable liquid fuels (RLFs) such as renewable liquefied petroleum gas. The consultation closed on 10 February, and we will issue a government response in due course.
The government will review evidence from this consultation to help inform any future decision on whether or not to support the use of RLFs in heating.
