Electrified Home: a UK guide to leaving gas and oil behind
A practical guide to switching a UK home’s heating, cooking and car to electricity, with tools for estimating costs, checking grants and planning the change.
- For
- UK households planning to replace gas or oil heating
- Worth noticing
- The installer finder links listed heat-pump, solar and battery installers to the MCS register.
Field notes
The guide treats electrification as a sequence of household decisions rather than a single renovation, and notes that changes can happen in different orders over several years. Tool inputs vary: the grant finder asks for a postcode and four questions, while the visualiser uses a phone camera. The savings calculator describes its output as a starting point for installer conversations and says a separate page explains its limits.
