Off-gas heating provider Grant UK has outlined its vision for the future in a ‘Manifesto for change’.
The publication, Grant UK 2030 Vision: Heating homes sustainably for future generations lays out the company’s mission to support its customers on the journey to net zero carbon by providing efficient, sustainable and cost-effective home heating, from traditional systems to renewable technologies.
In line with the government’s target of net zero carbon by 2050, Grant said its goal was to take the lead on decarbonising home heating with either a focus on biofuels, renewable technologies, such as heat pumps or where appropriate, hybrid heating systems.
Its Manifesto included the need for future legislation to consider how to make older houses more energy efficient and the introduction of a scrappage scheme for older inefficient appliances to encourage homes to switch to greener heating methods.
Grant UK managing director Paul Wakefield said: “Our 2030 Vision outlines how government targets can realistically be met. Hybrid systems are a significant and immediately available solution to transitioning the off-gas market towards low-carbon heating as they combine a traditional boiler with a renewable technology like a heat pump.
“Installers will be so important to deliver the change that is required to move away from a reliance on fossil-fuels, especially those in off-gas areas. Our aim is to support installers as much as possible to enable this to happen.”
