The Government is putting in place a combination of regulatory and public spending measures to achieve at least 600,000 heat pump installations a year by 2028.

Support for Heat Pumps is available under a range of government schemes including, the Home Upgrade Scheme, Social Housing Decarbonisation scheme and Boiler Upgrade Scheme.

The Government has announced we are extending the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until 2028, to support the installation of heat pumps, in domestic and small non-domestic buildings. This builds on £450 million of funding we have already committed between 2022 and 2025.
