Story summary
  • The European Commission revised the Ecodesign regulation to allow both condensing and traditional boilers to stay on the market.
  • Initially, a total boiler ban was proposed for 2029.
  • The change responds to backlash from the gas supply chain and to encourage member states to end fossil fuel boilers by 2040, though feasibility is questioned.
  • The final regulation will be published in early 2026 and take effect by 2029.
