So far, 16,600 heat pumps have been installed in existing homes. The target for 2025, which is the next target date, is 45,000, so we have to get from 16,600 to 45,000 in two years to meet the 2025 target. The next target after that, which is much more demanding, is 400,000 heat pumps by 2030. The structure of these targets is set so the vast majority are in the second half of the decade compared with the first half. That is the answer on heat pump installation.

Approximately 90% of new homes that are built are being fitted with heat pumps. As about 30,000 homes a year are being built, this means approximately 27,000 pumps are being installed every year in new homes. It is a new and complex technology, but this is helping with the skilling that is required to both install them and maintain them for the future.
