The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether he plans to issue guidance on the use of renewable liquid gases in the context of the transition to net zero.

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.
