EDF, in partnership with Ideal Heating, has launched a new zero standing charge heat pump tariff.
Exclusively available to customers that install an Ideal Heating air source heat pump through EDF Heat Pumps, EDF said its new ‘Heat Pump and Save Tracker’ one-year tariff guarantees customers daily savings which will amount to at least £360 a year, with no standing charge or exit fees to pay.
The one-year tariff provides six hours of discounted zero carbon electricity every day, it noted, with no price hikes or penalties, and twice-daily discounts between the hours of 4am to 7am and 1pm to 4pm. Customers can also pocket extra savings by shifting more of their consumption to the off-peak hours.
And for a limited time, EDF is discounting all air source heat pump installations by £500 for the first 50 customers that sign up. The tariff is available for customers who pay a deposit before 30 September 2025 and complete their install before 31 December 2025.
The discount will mean a heat pump system starts from £3,180 when applying the Boiler Upgrade Scheme Grant. Finance options are also available to help customers spread the cost. EDF said that with its Recommendation Scheme, heat pump customers can also earn £250 cashback for themselves, and £250 discount for a friend, with every referral.
Philippe Commaret, managing director of customers at EDF, said: “Our goal is to support as many homeowners as possible with transitioning to low carbon technologies. Introducing our new tariff with zero standing charges ensures customers can take advantage of daily savings from the moment their heat pump is installed. We’re so confident in our service and product that we’re even offering a Heat Pump Promise, which guarantees customers a warm home or their money back.”
Mark Derbyshire, managing director (sales and marketing) at Ideal Heating, added: “We’re delighted to partner with EDF Heat Pumps for a second phase, launching a brand-new offer for its customers that combines our industry-leading heat pump technology with a new zero standing charge tariff.
“At Ideal Heating, we’ve put our century-long experience in heating solutions right at the heart of our heat pump proposition, with high-performance heat pumps that are easy to fit and easy to maintain, backed up by a fully transparent warranty and UK-based heat pump expert teams ready to support our customers through the entire journey.”
Stephanie, from Bury St Edmonds who had an air source heat pump with EDF Heat Pumps installed, said she has experienced the benefits of low carbon living. Stephanie stated: “I wanted a self-sufficient house; a house that could just run itself and I didn’t have to do anything – no maintenances. Having a heat pump is effortless to me; I don’t touch it, I don’t hear it, I don’t go anywhere near it, because I don’t have to. It’s really, really easy.”
