I'm confused, no change there!

highlights Boiler Plus 2018 which requires a 92% ErP from April 2018,
though it's not clear what ErP is. I have looked and I have failed to
find out what ErP means and its significance.

The planning portal:

https://www.planningportal.co.uk/inf..._and_heating/2

gives a minimum efficiency of 86% for gas.

And what is most confusing the database of boiler efficiencies doesn't
mention Boiler Plus 2018:

What are the rules about new boiler installations? Have they really changed?

ErP and EuP are energy-related and energy-using products, respectively.

says ErP stands for 'Energy-related Products', so the original link
which says "The new minimum performance standard for domestic gas
boilers in English homes will be set at 92% ErP" is nonsense if I expand
the acronym!

For info I see EuP means "Energy-using Products".

Is that not what I said?
Don't blame me if it doesn't make sense :-)

It is, apologies.

I wasn't blaming for anything and appreciate you pointing me in the
right direction.

It's just strange that a government document would use the term "92% ErP".

In that context I think ErP is a reference to the Energy Related
Products _methodology_ for turning the performance of a domestic boiler
into a single figure. That applied across the EU from the
Energy-related Products Directive (also "ErP" for short!) in 2015.
