Major carbon reductions and billions of pounds saved for government and consumers – the opportunity with renewable liquid fuels
Decarbonising virtually all oil heated homes through heat pumps may be a noble ambition for the government, but the evidence for this approach doesn’t stack up.

That’s why we need renewable liquid fuels.

Decarbonising the way we heat buildings is a significant challenge, and an enormous technology transformation will be required to achieve the 2050 net-zero targets. Arguments continue to rage how the necessary changes should be implemented, but there is also growing concern over whether the workforce is available with the necessary skills to deliver the 2050 goals.
