Still unrealistic.

Requires land for the district heating facility, and then ripping up the road to lay plumbing, etc.

For the UK the solution is known: create and mass produce an electric alternative to the combo boiler.

The numbers required, and the time to fit them offers at least a decade of mid-skilled manufacturing and trades employment, as well as recycling opportunities for the old boilers (aluminium, steel, brass).

The cost can also be spread over time and you can start anywhere once the boilers exist.
