THE trade body representing the wood-burning stove industry has lodged a petition with the Scottish Parliament calling for the ban on installations in new-build homes to be reversed.

The SIA questioned the environmental motivation behind the policy, saying in a briefing document: “Woodburning stoves are the lowest carbon emitting heating available for homes, with a carbon intensity 1/19th of direct electric heating.” The SIA said it had lodged the petition with the Scottish Parliament on May 3 and it is expected to go live for signatures in due course.

“Furthermore, the standard specifies heating technology with higher carbon emissions than a wood-burning stove which is fundamentally at odds with the objective of the standard.

“Proposals in the New Build Heat Standard, which came into force from April 1, 2024, were widely consulted on in 2021 and again in 2022. Both consultations showed strong support for the new standard. “Separately, the Scottish Government has recently finished consulting on plans for introducing clean heating systems in existing homes and buildings and is currently considering responses. This included proposals around the use of bioenergy and measures to prohibit the use of polluting heating systems in all buildings after 2045.”We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
