Today in his pre-Budget statement Alistair Darling announced a boiler scrappage scheme.

£200 million to improve energy efficiency and tackle fuel poverty by:

  • offering £400 to 125,000 households to upgrade their old boilers to the latest efficient models with a Greener Boiler incentive.
  • providing extra resources for Warm Front to help 75,000 of the most vulnerable households with heating and insulation

Mark Kelly, CEO Baxi Group UK, said "this is a great lift for the industry. It's good to see the Government moving on reducing the carbon footprint of the existing boiler base while maintaining a focus on renewables".
