Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026Would announcing a cut to say £5k in say 2-3 years time = a sharp change in your view? 100 1
Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026But announcing a cut in 2-3 years time might provide more of a carrot? 100 1
Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026Ok, easy to avoid Google. Proton is a widely used email alternative. Vivaldi is a well used browser. Plenty of search engine alternatives.

Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026I’m currently in the process of having a heat pump + water cylinder installed. The heat pump + cylinder cost ~£7k if I bought them myself. I’m being charged nearly double for the installation, less the BUS. I think there’s room for costs to come down 000 0
Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026The Future Homes Standard will significantly increase the roll-out of heat pumps. This increased demand should see heat pumps costs decrease. As this happens reducing the support offered is sensible policy 200 2
Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026Let’s say BUS is cut to £5k instead of £7.5k. That would continue providing support to retro-fits. It would also reflect the fact that the price of heat pumps & installs should fall as demand rises… and the Future Homes Standard will increase demand significantly 010 1
Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026Not trying to be difficult but I genuinely don’t understand why this can’t be consistent with what your Nesta article proposes? 000 0
Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026The article is clear that the government are not looking at scrapping BUS completely “The programme will not be abolished altogether but sources say hundreds of millions of pounds will be cut from its £2.7bn budget”theguardian.comMinisters preparing to slash heat pump subsidies to fund defence spendingExclusive: Some of £2bn savings needed from energy budget expected to come from boiler upgrade scheme, sources say 200 2
Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026Yes, the article suggests that BUS be reduced to £5k from 2028-2029 I agree it would be sensible to announce a future reduction in BUS as Future Homes Standard increases demand significantly. This may stimulate demand for retro-fits before 28/29 Not sure why this would ‘decimate the industry’ 100 1
Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026Two markets which both support the heat pump industry. Future Homes Standard will see far greater numbers of heat pumps installed which will support the industry. Even the Nesta article you’ve linked to suggest BUS should be cut 🤷🏻♂️ 100 1
Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026Future Homes Standard bans gas boilers from early 2027. Surely that will increase demand for heat pump installs in far greater numbers than BUS ever achieved? BUS has achieved 80k heat pumps in 4-5 years. New builds will do that in 1 year 120 2
Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026It’s also sensible to signal BUS won’t remain in place forever and/or that support will reduce. If reductions are announced with a 2-3 year time-frame, it may incentivise more people to install heat pumps before BUS is reduced. 120 2
Juan Pablo De Wes @juanpablodewes.eurosky.social · 12/10/2026Strange for the article not to mention the Future Homes Standard bans gas boilers in new builds from early 2027. That will support heat pump installations in far greater number than BUS has achieved. It is sensible to scale back the BUS in a year or two, once new builds increase demand 230 3
