Home Energy Saving Guide — United Kingdom

The UK 2026 edition. Every home energy use — what it costs, what you’d save, and how fast each fix pays back. Real UK rates, the price cap and grant schemes.

What’s inside

The UK edition — localised properly for British homes: UK terminology, °C, gas billed in kWh, and the schemes that actually apply (Ofgem price cap, Boiler Upgrade Scheme, ECO4, SEG, Economy 7).

Each section gives you the three numbers that matter: what you’d save a year, what the fix costs, and how long it takes to pay back.

The honest bit

Heat pumps are framed straight: with the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant they’re roughly cost-neutral against a new boiler for many homes — not the bill cut they’re sometimes sold as. You get the real picture before you spend.
