Households grappling with the escalating expense of heating oil are set to receive enhanced grants to facilitate the replacement of their oil boilers with electric heat pumps, the Government has announced.
Ministers are increasing the grants available under the "boiler upgrade scheme" from £7,500 to £9,000 for properties that rely on heating oil and LPG. This initiative aims to assist households and small businesses across England and Wales, particularly in rural areas, in transitioning to electric heating and securing greater predictability over their energy bills.
