Housing secretary Robert Jenrick has made a commitment to
a new green standard to tackle the climate crisis and keep household energy
bills low. The Future Homes Standard would see fossil fuel heating systems,
such as gas boilers, banned from new-build homes by 2025. They will be replaced
with cleaner technology, including air source heat pumps and “cutting-edge”
solar panels, explained the government. Jenrick said: “Building new homes isn’t
just about bricks and mortar; I want to ensure everyone – including developers
– does their bit to protect the environment and give the next generation
beautiful, environmentally friendly homes that local communities can support.”
