I also wish to ask about fossil fuel boilers in existing buildings. We are doing well in terms of new builds, but the situation with existing buildings is much more challenging. How is it going? If someone lives in a house built between the 1950s and 1970s, he or she may not install a heat pump and may instead install another oil or gas boiler. What is the path in respect of existing buildings?
