Climate Change Act 2008
As part of its ambitious targets to reduce carbon emissions in the UK by 80% before 2050, the new coalition government have introduced the Green Deal Plan. This Green Deal Plan is set to revolutionise the green energy efficiency of homes and businesses throughout the UK by allowing the general public and businesses to improve their green energy efficiency with no upfront costs. Instead Green Deal Providers will recoup these costs through a charge in instalments on the energy bill.
Green Deal Providers ensure that the general public can help address climate change by reducing energy waste and most importantly CO2 emissions. The Green Deal Plan is a self financing improvement scheme designed to bring the UK's housing stock up to date and in line with many of our European neighbours. All over the country the Green Deal Plan will allow tenants, home-owners and businesses to obtain energy efficiency improvements without any up font cost via Green Deal Assessments.
The Green Deal Provider is the counter signatory to the Green Deal Plan and responsible for both the provision of the green deal finance and arranging the green deal energy efficiency works. I work with Green Deal Providers and can arrange the necessary green deal assessments and coordinate the green deal finance. Many homes will also qualify for Energy Company Obligation ECO grants i.e. Solid Wall Insulation.
The Green Deal Provider will offer a Green Deal Plan to customers based on recommendations from the accredited local Green Deal Approved Advisors undertaking the Green Deal Assessments. The Green Deal Plan sets out the financial terms of the agreement and will include extra consumer protections such as warranties to cover the measures and installation, dealing with customer complaints and providing information when a new bill payer moves in.
The Green Deal Provider will arrange for the installation of energy efficiency works, carried out by local Green Deal Installers, and will have an ongoing obligation in relation to Green Deal Plans.
