e UK’s existing housing stock away from fossil fuels and towards more sustainable heating solutions. Good Energy is advocating for better support for people looking to move onto renewable heating systems, such as heat pumps.
“The misconception is that heat pumps don’t work in old or traditionally built houses,” says Pocklington. “Actually, about 40% of the work we do is helping people to get off bottled gas and heating oil.”
Finally, the campaign is requesting more targeted support for lower-income households that want to make the switch to renewable energy. This includes financial assistance and guidance on the best options for their homes.
By making these changes, Good Energy believes the UK can make significant progress towards its climate goals while also reducing energy bills for households across the country. And Sunshine Place is leading the way as a model of what a renewable energy future could look like.
