UK: Latest figures from the MCS accredited heat pump installer scheme reports 5,152 installations in May, up 8% on April. Of the total number heat pump installations, 5094 were air-source.
MCS CEO Ian Rippin said that the figures reveal that consumers continue to make the transition to low-carbon heating, driven by initiatives such as the Boiler Upgrade Scheme.
“Last month was the best May for small-scale renewables in MCS history, with almost 30,000 certified installations across the UK, following on from the best April on record.
In total, heat pump sales were dwarfed by solar PV, which recorded more than 21,100 certified installations in May – a 30% increase on May 2024. It was also the best month on record for battery storage with almost 3,400 certified installations – a 112% increase on May 2024.
