Green Deal Goes Live

The Government's Green Deal, which is aimed at making the country's buildings more energy efficient, goes live today (28 January).  The scheme offers homeowners and businesses a way of paying for energy efficient improvements such as insulation and new heating systems.  Households in England and Wales who use the Green Deal to make energy saving improvements will also qualify for hundreds of pounds of cashback from the Green Deal Cashback Scheme.  The more work households decide to have done, the more cash they could receive and packages could be worth over £1,000.  Read more on the DECC website.
