Ex-environment secretary George Eustice says his plan will decarbonise homes using kerosene boilers.
People should be given tax incentives to heat their homes with vegetable oil to help the environment, a former minister has said.
But Mr Eustice, the Conservative MP for Camborne and Redruth, argued the costs involved in installing heat pumps in older rural properties is a "huge barrier". By reducing tax on HVO to make it the same price as kerosene will lead to a "very rapid adoption" of the biofuel and an "88% reduction in carbon emissions" in the next four years, Mr Eustice said.HVO is a fossil-free, renewable and sustainable fuel produced by hydrotreatment of vegetable oils and animal fats. It can be produced from waste feedstocks and cooking oil.
Mr Eustice's said a pilot program in the small village of Kehelland, in his constituency, has led to fuel consumption fell by "around 30% to 35%".
