Heating oil prices across Europe
While Irish residents may be feeling the pinch of rising heating oil prices, prices there are far from the highest in Europe. Residents of the Netherlands could expect to pay euros per thousand liters, while heating oil prices in Denmark were more than twice those in Ireland.
Low carbon heating: moving beyond oil
Burning fossil fuels is a carbon intensive mean of heating buildings, and some governments as well as lobby groups are looking for low carbon solutions for keeping warm during winter. The German Government, for example, has moved to ban the installation of new oil heaters as soon as 2026. The United Kingdom’s Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) scheme has so far seen oil burning units replaced with solar thermal systems and oil burning units replaced with air source heat pumps.
