Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps he is taking to help increase the rate of installation of home insulation measures.

The Government is investing £6.6 billion over this parliament on decarbonising heat and energy efficiency measures.

An additional £6 billion of new Government funding was announced in the Autumn Statement available from 2025 to 2028. This provides long-term funding certainty, supporting the growth of supply chains, and ensuring we can scale up our delivery over time.

A zero-rate of VAT was introduced in 2022 for five years on energy efficiency measures, making it cheaper for people to invest in their properties and reduce their energy use.
