Context
The UK government has decided to reduce energy bills by £150 for families. Kensa, a company in the questioner's constituency that manufactures ground source heat pumps, is looking for policy certainty and public funding support.
What assessment he has made of the potential impact of reducing energy bills by £150 on family finances? Kensa, based in my Camborne, Redruth and Hayle constituency, is the largest manufacturer of ground source heat pumps to neighbourhoods and council flats. This technology delivers low energy bills for family finances but requires policy certainty and a plan to grow.
I really enjoyed my visit to Kensa—which I recommend all Members go to—as it is a truly innovative company leading in heat pump manufacture. We will be publishing our warm homes plan shortly, which aims to drive forward the uptake of heat pumps and support companies such as Kensa, given there is also significant job creation involved.
