I see, so it's similar to solar in that it costs a bunch up front but pays off eventually.They use 3.6 to 5 times less energy.
So say a heat pump was getting a SCOP of 4 and used consuming £500 in electric to heat a house, an electric combi would use £2000 in electric to do the same job.
But most people don't have that cash to spare, so they don't do it and therefore it's an unrealistic strategy.
Ofc renewable leccy should be plentiful and therefore cheap, if we could unlink leccy from fossil fuel prices we could give everyone leccy combi boilers?
