Electric cars and heat pumps making progress, UK climate advisers say
Published: 6/25/2025

UK climate advisers report progress in electric cars and heat pump adoption, but stress the need for more growth to meet net zero emissions goals by 2050. The government must ensure households benefit from clean technologies through lower bills, with calls to make electricity cheaper. Rising sales of electric cars and heat pumps are noted, but more support, including affordable electricity and removal of charges on bills, is crucial for further transition to sustainable energy sources.
