The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what assessment he has made of trends in the level of rollout of heat pumps by boiler manufacturers.

Answered by Martin McCluskey

UK heat pump sales hit a record high in 2025, and the government expects to see continued growth over the coming years.

Manufacturers of a range of heating technologies, including fossil fuel boilers, are among the leading players in this growing market.

The government will continue to keep developments in the market under close review as heat pump uptake in existing and new homes continues to gather pace.
