C.E.R.T FUNDING /
PermaRock’s range of products and services is now complimented by the ability to facilitate funding/ grant support under the C.E.R.T (Carbon Emissions Reduction Target) programme for external wall insulation (solid wall insulation) refurbishment projects.
C.E.R.T - which came into effect on 1 April 2008 and will run until 2011 - is an obligation introduced by the Government on energy suppliers to achieve targets for promoting reductions in carbon emissions in the household sector and combating fuel poverty. The programme will deliver overall lifetime carbon dioxide savings of 154 MtCO2 – equivalent to the emissions from 700,000 homes each year – and will stimulate about £2.8 billion of investment by energy suppliers in carbon reduction measures.
It is the principal driver of energy efficiency improvements in existing homes in Great Britain and it marks a significant strengthening of efforts to reduce household carbon emissions – with a doubling of the level of activity of its predecessor Energy Efficiency Commitment (EEC).
C.E.R.T will maintain a focus on vulnerable consumers and now includes new innovative and flexible approaches to energy efficiency, including PermaRock external wall insulation systems.
Our advisors can provide details on how we are able to assist with a range of best value solutions tailored to suit individual schemes and provide an optimised package of supportive funding where PermaRock external wall insulation is used to meet the scheme requirements. Our nationwide network of specialist installers are able to deliver the resulting schemes on budget and on time.
