Analysis: Cutting the ‘green crap’ has added £22bn to UK energy bills since 2015 - Carbon Brief
www.carbonbrief.org
UK's energy bills were £22bn higher over the past decade than they would have been if Conservative governments had not cut “green crap” climate policies.

£9bn due to not having built more cheap onshore wind, £5bn due to poorly insulated homes, £5bn due to low solar deployment, £3bn because new homes were built less efficient.

    Your initial comment was that the average UK house isn’t suitable for heat pumps. This is incorrect, in the vast majority of UK homes (including the poorly insulated) they can be heated sufficiently by a heat pump.

    Don’t spread misinformation. Some installers have fixed prices regardless of the number and size of radiators. There’s even solutions out there where a hot water tank can be fitted into a standard kitchen cupboard.

    You keep mentioning high temperature units which are less efficient, they are only needed in very niche installs or used by poorly trained installers.
