Last month, the newly elected Coalition Government reaffirmed that the urgent need to develop a low-carbon economy will remain a key issue in the years ahead, including the target to reduce central government carbon emissions by 10% within next 12 months and supporting an increase in the EU emission reduction target to 30% by 2020.The Green Deal aims to encourage UK householders and businesses to take up energy efficiency measures by introducing a 'pay as you save' scheme - efficiency measures, such as loft and cavity wall insulation, which will be repaid through a charge on a home's energy meter offset by the savings made on fuel bills.Home insulation will be bought through high street retailers and supermarkets and will require energy assessments and means a boost to the plumbing and heating industry, which is also good news for those looking to train to be a plumber or gain a Gas?
