TBH British homes do not need as much heating/cooling due to the local climate, plus the density of population in Southeast England is crazy and commute times high as well. I wouldn't like to live in such an anthill.

Our houses usually being tiny and connected to two other ones helps on the heating bills; its a shared effort.

Cooling is opening the window; turning on a fan and sweating your nads off. But only for a few weeks a year.

The rest of the year the incessant drizzle and grey sky helps cool the building.
