Home – Heating and Insulation
Making our homes energy efficient and cheap to heat is a challenge.
Leaving that challenge with the associated planning and expense to individual households is irresponsible.
Green Party spokesperson on housing and communities, Carla Denyer, said:
“The government’s market-driven approach to decarbonise homes is leaving households confused and stressed, and will not deliver results fast enough. What is needed is a publicly-funded scheme that will retrofit 10 million homes, making them warm and cheap to heat, by 2030.
