Nottingham mixes Victorian terraces, interwar semis, ex-council housing and a large student rental sector, with newer developments around the city. Like much of the East Midlands, it benefits from some of the lower electricity costs in the country, which helps heat pump running costs.

Typical Nottingham property types
Nottingham has substantial Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, post-war semis in the suburbs, and modern flats near the centre. Terraces and semis suit heat pumps well; see our terraced and semi-detached guides.
Grant availability in Nottingham
Nottingham homeowners receive the standard £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, as the city is on the gas grid. Off-grid oil/LPG homes in rural Nottinghamshire may qualify for £9,000. See the grant page.
Installer demand
The East Midlands has a steady base of MCS-certified installers covering Nottingham and nearby towns, so availability is generally good. We connect you with a local certified installer.
Weather considerations
Nottingham's East Midlands climate brings ordinary cold winters that are no challenge for a heat pump, which works well below freezing. Sensible sizing covers the coldest days.
Regional electricity costs
A modest local advantage: Nottingham is in the East Midlands electricity distribution region, which is among the cheaper regions in Great Britain for electricity unit rates. Lower electricity prices help heat pump running costs, so Nottingham homes may see a slightly better picture than higher-cost regions. The running cost calculator uses the GB average baseline.
