A Warm Introduction to Grants, Credits and Smarter Heat

Government Incentives at a Glance
Ready to compare the big-ticket incentives? Here’s your quick briefing—complete with the new Boiler Upgrade Scheme centre stage.
UK Clean Heat Grant
- A pilot voucher scheme for heat pumps and biomass boilers.
- Offers up to £5,000 towards an air source heat pump.
- Runs from April 2022 to March 2025.
- Great for early adopters testing the waters of renewable heat.
- But does sit on limited funds and strict regional caps.
Despite its pilot status, those vouchers can vanish fast. And if you miss out, don’t worry—the Boiler Upgrade Scheme is just around the corner to fill the gap.
Boiler Upgrade Scheme
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme is the UK’s flagship programme to nudge homes away from fossil fuels. Under this scheme:
- Air source heat pumps receive a £5,000 grant.
- Ground source installs can bag £6,000.
- Boilers on the brink of retirement? Swap under the Boiler Upgrade Scheme for a modern, eco-friendly alternative.
- Open until March 2025—though funds are finite.
- Simplified applications mean you won’t need a degree in red tape.
By design, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme smooths out application quirks and expands eligibility beyond the pilot’s reach. If you’re hunting for certainty and scale, this scheme is your best bet.
US Home Improvement Credit
Across the pond, America’s Residential Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit covers:
- 30% of qualified expenses (up to $1,200 for windows, doors, insulation).
- A separate $2,000 cap for heat pumps and boilers.
- Applies to installations made from Jan. 1, 2023 through Dec. 31, 2025.
- Non-refundable: you can’t claim more than your tax liability.
- Requires Form 5695 at tax time.
It’s an attractive programme, especially if you already live stateside. But it demands detailed record-keeping—especially if you juggle business and home use. Plus, you’ll need a Qualified Manufacturer Identification Number (QMID) for 2025 installs.
