Recommendation 19

It is clear that retrofitting Scotland's existing housing stock at sufficient scale and pace will be essential to decarbonising heating, and therefore to meeting the CCP's targets. A piecemeal approach which continues to rely on individuals taking action will not be sufficient. The Committee is concerned that the projected rates of heat pump installations will not sufficiently scale up by 2030 in order to put Scotland on course to reaching the 2045 target.
