Heating news and regulations

A grant rate can change between the quote and the invoice. That has happened often enough to fill 223 articles.

This section tracks the value of energy saving certificates, the conditions attached to renovation grants, how schemes stack, the obligations placed on new boilers, and the bans announced then walked back. Wood burning remains the textbook case. Every autumn brings the rumour of a ban ; every spring half denies it, and a consumer group publishes a correction nobody reads.

District heating takes a good share of the pile. Nancy is extending its network, Paris is negotiating a 15 billion contract its own councillors attack, Clichy and Levallois are arguing over a route. Kazakhstan is relaying 300 kilometres of pipe. What gets decided in Karaganda or Haiyang reaches us later, under another name.
