The National Housing Federation has published a briefing note for housing associations on the Government’s Heat and Buildings Strategy which was released on 19 October. The Heat and Buildings Strategy sets out how the Government plans to eliminate ‘virtually all emissions arising from heating, cooling and energy use in our buildings’. To achieve this, housing associations need to replace all fossil fuel heating appliances in all of their homes with clean heat technologies powered by net zero energy sources e.g. heat pumps power by a decarbonised electricity grid.
