PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(29 August 2025)

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps he is taking to increase the deployment of low-carbon heating technologies in the social housing sector; and if he will review and respond to the findings of Mitsubishi Electric’s recent report on delivering net zero in social housing.

Asked by:
Gregor Poynton (Labour)

The Government has committed £13.2 billion over the Spending Review period for the Warm Homes Plan, which will support investment in insulation and low carbon heating to homes across England. Within Wave 3 of the Warm Homes: Social Housing Fund, which launched earlier this year, there is a new optional low carbon heating incentive for homes on the gas grid. Up to 10% of homes in an application can access a £20,000 grant per home to install low carbon heating measures. I appreciate Mitsubishi Electric’s recent report, and my officials are engaging with Mitsubishi regarding these findings.
