Why does the market need public private partnerships?
The Green Deal creates a new market, but;
• Suppliers need confidence in continuity of demand• Customers confidence in both vfm and guarantees• Both need consistency of pricing and market
conditions• Together we can develop trust and create
economies through scale and density

DECC Community FundsFund of £20m provides incentives to householders
to• maximise delivery of GD plans and create future
demand• create a strong link to deliver joint GD and ECO
activity;• build a market for high impact, hard to treat
measures, such as solid wall insulation; and• drive a street/area/sector based approach to
GD/ECO.
European Regional Development Fund £157m 2014-2020 to fund Low Carbon Economy
• Energy Efficiency to housing and public buildings• Advice, guidance and loans for businesses • Smart living innovation and demonstration
projects. • Development of transition technologies • Renewable energy generation in key areas• District Energy
But time is not on our side• DECC £20m Community Fund is on first come first served
basis• DECC incentives to take up Green Deal are generous (up to
£1,000) but won’t last• ECO funds are getting committed and may be “gone” soon• Organisations who don’t understand the requirements of
the new legislation are moving in already, creating work for Trading Standards teams
• Trusted local organisations and energy advice agencies need clarity so they can plan for the coming winter
• Fuel Poverty is rising, the Welfare Reform time bomb is ticking, fuel costs are expected to rise this autumn and winters are getting colder… it is not a good time to be cold and in fuel poverty.
