    There are many different ways to go about it but in my opinion currently the best options are.

    1. Good Insulation
    2. Air Tightness
    3. MHRV
    4. Solar
    5. Thermal Store
    6. Boiler or Stove

    Personally I'd stay away from GSHP. as it takes too long to recover the outlay.
    That's just my opinion.
    If you get 1 to 5 right you will have very little need for 6.
