Warm Homes Plan
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, if he will work with the Northern Ireland Executive to ensure that low-carbon and sustainable heating technologies other than heat pumps are included within the final capital support framework for the proposed Warm Homes Plan.
Answered by Martin McCluskey
The Department is committed to working collaboratively with the Northern Ireland Executive on the delivery of the Warm Homes Plan (WHP), recognising the distinct housing stock and energy needs across the UK. The WHP supports a range of low‑carbon heating solutions beyond hydronic heat pumps including heat networks, biomass boilers, air-to-air heat pumps, and heat batteries to ensure the upgrades are right for the context of the household. We will continue to keep under review the range of technologies that are supported by the WHP schemes.
