UK electricity prices are currently geared to 'natural' gas prices, rather than simply reflecting the actual costs of solar and wind power. The thinktank E3G is advocating changing regulations to allow the country's electricity prices to be markedly cheaper. It calculates that, if that was done, each UK home could save more than £500 per annum on heating bills by having a heat pump rather than a gas boiler (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/aug/28/heat-pumps-could-halve-heating-bills-with-energy-system-reform-study-finds). This seems a 'no-brainer' as switching to heat pumps would also greatly reduce the UK's 'greenhouse gas' emissions.
