The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) is a heating system grant for people in England and Wales to get up to £7,500 off a low carbon heating system.  In September 2024, the scheme was at its most popular, with over 3,200 applications for that month alone. The UK Government recently announced several improvements as part of its Warm Homes Plan. These include: 

• Adding £30 million to Boiler Upgrade Scheme funding until March 2025. 
• Increasing BUS funding to £295 million for 2025/26. 
• Removing planning barriers for households in England to install an air source heat pump.
