Which? responds to the NAO report on decarbonising home heating

Rocio Concha, Which? Director of Policy and Advocacy, said: 

"Our research found that the cost of some green technologies such as heat pumps- as well as a lack of awareness and reliable information- is currently holding consumers back from leading more sustainable lives- with around four in 10 (44%) homeowners not even knowing what a heat pump is.

 "To overcome some of the significant barriers and transition to energy efficient homes and low carbon heating, households will need support from government and businesses. This includes help in identifying the right measures for their home, support with high upfront costs and a straightforward process to find qualified and reliable installers."
