CCC Deny Reality

Households are already £800 worse off a year as a result of Net Zero policies on electricity costs, whether directly via energy bills or indirectly via higher taxes and prices. Based on NESO/OFGEM figures, that figure will likely double in the next few years. Being forced to buy a heat pump will add another £1000 a year to household costs, including loan interest. And with EVs still costing thousands more than petrol cars, they will be unaffordable for many. You don’t need a fancy analysis to work out that people will be much worse off if Net Zero policies continue to be enforced.
