Today’s budget statement must include clear commitment to spend the full £1.8bn before the end of this Parliament to avoid missing opportunity to tackle fuel poverty, create jobs and cut climate change emissions www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politic...

We welcome today's @scottishgovernment.bsky.social announcement of £20 million extra funding for Warmer Homes Scotland this year - this will go some way towards protecting the most vulnerable households, whilst creating job and training opportunities that will serve us well in the years ahead.

We're seeing more and more myth-busting examples of heat pumps providing affordable heating. This is a great one - 100 year old block of flats with more than 80 flats now being warmed by ground source heat pumps in central London. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
