abstract
The government response provides a summary of the responses received to the consultation, and our decisions about the final design of the Clean Heat Market Mechanism scheme ahead of its launch in 2024. The consultation set out proposals for the introduction of a market-based mechanism to support the development of the UK market for low-carbon electric heat pumps. Having considered the responses, we have made a number of adjustments to details of the scheme's design, primarily to offer additional flexibility to obligated parties. The response explains those adjustments and confirms that the scheme will be administered by the Environment Agency. We will proceed to introduce scheme regulations to Parliament in line with the design parameters set out in the consultation response, in advance of the start of the first scheme year in April 2024.
note
[Quote: "Targets for generating or acquiring heat pump credits for the first two years of the scheme will be as proposed in Option 1 in the consultation — namely 4% of a manufacturer's relevant fossil fuel boiler sales2 for Scheme Year 1 (April 2024 to March 2025) and 6% of relevant sales for Scheme Year 2..." Quote: "... a tradable heat pump credit will be earned by a heat pump manufacturer upon the installation of a qualifying domestic-scale hydronic heat pump and notification via an appropriate certification scheme such as the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS). The installation of qualifying hybrid heat pumps incorporating a fossil fuel boiler alongside a hydronic heat pump will earn 0.5 scheme credits."]
