WWF Study Finds Heat Pumps Cheaper Than Gas

PR Campaign
Tuesday 20th October, 2026

WWF commissioned consultancy Prognos to compare the long-term heating costs of heat pumps and gas boilers. The study found heat pumps cheaper over 15 years even in older, unrenovated homes, turning a disputed climate-policy question into a timely, practical cost comparison for consumers.

Why it worked: It flipped a politicised debate into a money-saving deadline by quantifying 15‑year costs and urgency from expiring subsidies.

The lesson: Consider reframing a hot controversy as a time‑bounded personal finance choice with fresh numbers and a looming cutoff date.
