Current estimates place the number of residences using gas at around 25 million. Considering the massive scope of the transition, substantial resources will likely be allocated to equip engineers with the skills they'll need to do the necessary task.
A gas engineer is an expert in gas-powered infrastructure and appliances. Boilers, gas stoves, fireplaces, and similar devices fall into this category. A gas engineer employs cutting-edge technical expertise to ensure the reliable operation of gas and steam systems throughout installation, maintenance, and repair.
A plumber requires no special education or certification, as one can learn the trade by doing the work. However, gas engineers get the certification and are registered with Gas Safe. This sector is extremely governed for a good reason.
The new law prohibiting the installation of gas boilers in dwellings after 2025 has garnered considerable media attention. So, after 2025, no new construction will be allowed without an alternate heating system.
