Welcome to the forum.

Loads of posts on this subject.

Wet electric central heating is a very bad idea - unless you are getting an Air Source Heat Pump(ASHP) like the Mitsubishi Ecodan - but that is expensive.

Why replace your present heaters(they are called storage heaters) - are they faulty?

If you do move away from storage heating, then just get plug in oil filled radiators and fan heaters and change your electricity tariff from Economy 7 to a normal 24/7 tariff.
