A major UK energy supplier has announced a significant financial incentive for households looking to upgrade their heating systems this winter.
Substantial Savings on Heating Upgrade
ScottishPower is offering a free £300 energy bill credit to customers who switch from a traditional boiler to a heat pump. This initiative is designed to help reduce household energy costs during the coldest months.
The promotion, which is available for a limited time, also includes a substantial £1,000 discount on a Panasonic heat pump for those ordering ahead of the Christmas period.
Complete Package for Maximum Efficiency
This unique bundle goes beyond the heat pump itself. It also incorporates smart heating technology from ScottishPower's partner, tado°.
Customers will receive a heat pump optimiser and smart radiator thermostats. This technology allows homeowners to manage their heating remotely and control temperatures on a room-by-room basis.
This intelligent system can lead to further energy savings of up to 22% on top of the efficiencies gained from the new heat pump.
To complete the offer, Panasonic is providing a £100 voucher that can be redeemed against products from its online store.
Driving the UK Towards Net Zero
Rozlyn Brennan, smart solutions director for ScottishPower’s Customer Business, commented on the environmental motivation behind the offer. She stated that a significant part of the UK's carbon emissions originates from domestic housing.
"Measures like heat pumps and solar panels are practical solutions in reducing this," she said. "These more energy efficient solutions can have a positive impact on how we each run our home while also supporting the move to a net zero country."
She expressed pride in the partnership with Panasonic, noting that the initiative makes low-carbon heating more accessible and affordable.
Paul Taylor, head of renewable heating for Panasonic UK, echoed this sentiment. "We’re delighted to launch this promotion in partnership with Scottish Power, making it easier and more affordable for households to upgrade to low-carbon heating," he said.
He emphasised that the combination of generous discounts and ongoing energy savings helps customers reduce their bills while supporting the UK's transition to a cleaner, more sustainable future.
For households in Scotland, additional support is accessible through Scottish Government schemes such as Home Energy Scotland, which provides grants and interest-free loans to assist with the transition to low-carbon heating.
