The UK’s heat pump transition is entering a decisive phase. As deployment scales, so does the risk that poor‑performing systems lead to higher bills, colder homes and a loss of trust in a technology with real potential to mitigate fuel poverty. Reflecting insights from the most active region in the UK for heat pump deployment, and from households at risk of fuel poverty, this session explores where delivery breaks down in practice and how heat pumps can be scaled without embedding avoidable harm.
