Future Ready Fuel Campaign
The Government is currently backing Air Source Heat Pumps, Ground / Water Source Heat Pumps, and Biomass Boilers. The average cost to switch to these alternatives varies between between £9k -£19k with significant changes needed to your home and heating system. In contrast, HVO trails have shown conversion costs of circa £500 with minimal changes need to your heating system.
UKIFDA and OFTEC have created the "Future Ready Fuel" campaign to inform heating oil customers about HVO and have conducted trials to establish the cost and viability of switching from kerosene to HVO in the future to heat your home and power your cooker. Please note that HVO Heating Oil is only available on trials at the moment.
CPS Fuels in working with UKIFDA and OFTEC in these trials and fully supports the Future Ready Fuel campaign to inform heating oil customers about HVO. We will share with you the results of the trials and the progress being made as we all work together to encourage Government to consider the place this renewable liquid fuel has in the future to heat your home and power your cooker.
We cannot do this alone and we would encourage you to learn more about HVO for heating on the Future Fuels website and also ask you to write to your local MP to lobby them so that the HVO fuel is included in future government policy.
With industry and consumers working together we believe we can get the Government to endorse HVO.
