UK Energy Secretary Ed Miliband says no plans to ban gas boilers by 2035, citing consumer costs.

UK Energy Secretary Ed Miliband stated that there are no plans to ban gas boilers by 2035, citing concerns over the potential cost to consumers if greener alternatives like heat pumps are not yet cheaper. The previous government had planned to ban new gas boilers by 2035, but it was reduced to an 80% phase-out. Critics argue that a new boiler tax could increase prices for consumers as manufacturers might pass fines onto them.
