The Green Deal initiative, introduced in the UK, aims to improve energy efficiency in homes by allowing consumers to make upgrades without upfront costs, paid back through their electricity bills. It addresses issues of poor insulation in older buildings, rising energy prices, and CO2 emissions targets, with various government-initiated support schemes. The framework involves accredited advisers and providers to implement energy-saving measures, ultimately benefiting consumers and contributing to a greener economy.

4. “Britain has some of the oldest
building stock in Europe. Our
draughty homes are poorly
insulated, leaking heat and
using up energy. As consumers,
we pay a high price for
inefficient housing.”
Chris Huhne
Secretary of State of Energy and Climate Change

From April 2018
Banned the UK Government
In 2018 will make it unlawful
to rent out a house or business
premise which has less than an
"E" energy efficiency rating. . Source, consumer focus

11. Others government-initiated schemes
to improve energy efficiency in businesses and households.
Scheme Comments
The Carbon Emission Reduction Target Introduced in April 2008, it is an obligation on energy suppliers to
(CERT).. reduce carbon emissions in the household sector through providing
energy efficiency improvements
The CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme. Mandatory carbon dioxide emission trading scheme to improve energy
efficiency in large public and private sector organisations in the UK.
The Community Energy Saving Programme Introduced in September 2009, it is an obligation on energy suppliers
(CESP). and generators to deliver energy efficiency measures in certain low
income areas.
The Warm Front Scheme in England, A range of programmes designed to offer grants to enable certain
the Nest energy efficiency scheme in Wales7 households in fuel poverty to install energy efficiency improvements
and the Energy Assistance Package in Scotland. such as home and loft insulation and heating measures.
The Decent Homes Programme. A policy designed to improve conditions, including energy efficiency, in
social housing.

12. Green Deal … what ?

13. What is it ?
“Green Deal plan” is a framework
to enable private firms to offer consumers
energy efficiency improvements to their homes
at no upfront cost
and recoup payments through a charge in instalments
on the electricity bill.
Green Deal Principle (“Golden Rule”): payback cost
must be less than average saving on bill.
The charge is attached to the house.
