Heating: Social Rented Housing

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps his Department is taking to encourage the roll-out of clean heat in social housing.

Answer

The Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF), launched in 2020, will upgrade a significant amount of the social housing stock below EPC C up to that standard, delivering warm, energy-efficient homes, reducing carbon emissions and fuel bills, tackling fuel poverty, and supporting green jobs. Total committed funding for the SHDF and associated demonstrator is just over £1bn.
