Is the UK’s new £15bn Warm Homes Plan really #sustainable? Our institute researchers say it's a bold step - but caution without stronger focus on insulation, clearer long term policy, and better support for vulnerable households, it could fall short. Read more: www.bath.ac.uk/announcement...

Have you heard the government announcement for new £15billion investment with the #WarmHomesPlan? As our colleagues at @cast-centre.bsky.social have shared, research shows that many Brits want to make low-carbon choices, but come up against practical barriers – cost being a big one.
