Cash giveaways on energy-efficient home improvements,
funded by the Green Deal, could be scrapped after the general election – but
£5m remains ready to be claimed. The pot of money, up to £1,850 per household,
is available on energy-efficient improvements such as cavity wall and loft
insulation, a new boiler and double glazing. The £540m fund set aside to fund
Green Deal home improvements has an uncertain future under the next government.
This £70m pot runs out in 10 days and it
will be up to the new energy secretary to decide when – if – to dip into the
remaining money. But DECC said there was still £5m available for eligible home
improvements. Read more on the Daily Telegraph website.
