New gas boilers should be banned within a decade, a review of net zero policy urges.
The report also calls for an “onshore wind revolution” and a five-fold increase in solar panels, amid efforts to boost the UK’s energy independence in the wake of the war in Ukraine.
The review, originally commissioned under Liz Truss, the former prime minister, and conducted by the MP Chris Skidmore, says net zero represents “a new era of opportunity” that risks being undermined by a lack of government ambition.
But it acknowledges that the net zero transition, including replacing boilers and buying electric cars, will cost households £4,000 to £6,000 each by 2040, with savings possible only after that.
The review also warns that nearly 500,000 households would not make any savings even in the long run, unless the Government provides more support.
