note
[(Updated and full report published April 2021.) From key recommendations: "The scenarios include a low-carbon heating system for every home. The Balanced Pathway includes low-carbon district heat for 5.5m existing homes, heat pumps for 21m existing homes (including 5m in a hybrid configuration, with some using hydrogen as a back-up) and direct electric heating for around 2m existing homes. There remains a high level of optionality around the exact mix of heating systems deployed to abate emissions from homes, although all scenarios point to the importance of delivering significant increases in heat pump deployment over the 2020s, deploying heat networks in areas where they are suitable, and progressing hydrogen trials." Quote: "Homes with a peak heat demand exceeding 150 W/m^2 are assumed unsuitable for heat pumps."]
