Ministers have been urged to ban the gas grid connections in new homes in an open letter signed by a broad coalition of organisations including energy companies, trade bodies, financial institutions and architects. The missive addressed to housing minister Rachel Maclean, as well as levelling up secretary Michael Gove and energy secretary Grant Shapps, says it is “critically important” that the Future Homes Standard due to come into effect in 2025 does not allow new homes to be connected to the gas grid.
