Dear Valued Customer
Many thanks for registering with us in what is to going to be a very exciting time for the Green Deal.
If you are not already aware the Green Deal is going full steam ahead with the first 22 Green Deal Providers already signed up last week, and according to DECC we are still estimated to be go live early October 2012. For those who have expressed an interest in the Green Deal we will be contacting you individually nearer the time to discuss your requirements.

New EPC
If you are not aware the new EPC rules began on the 6th April 2012 which in simple terms means that the certificate has been designed to be more user friendly and informative.
"The Energy Performance Certificate has proved useful in putting the efficiency of our homes at the forefront of our minds, but homeowners can often struggle to know how to act on the advice it gives.
"That's why we're giving it a complete redesign, making it clearer and easier to understand and putting the recommendations for improvements into matters of pounds and pence by showing how much consumers could potentially save on their energy bills.
"And by making the national register of Energy Performance Certificates open to the public, each homeowner will for the first time be able to see how their property compares with others, and where changes could be made so their homes become as eco-friendly as possible."
The new legislation also states that EPC’s will be required for marketing of non-domestic rental properties as well as residential properties. Written particulars will have to include a copy of the first page of the EPC , it will no longer be acceptable to only include the asset rating.
