Barry Gardiner – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Energy and Climate Change

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Barry Gardiner on 2016-03-08.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, whether she plans to provide funding for energy efficiency projects in the next Contracts for Difference allocation round.

Andrea Leadsom

No. The next CfD allocation round in late 2016, is for ‘less established’ technologies (Pot 2) only.

There are a number of schemes operated by central and local government, and by the devolved administrations, which support energy efficiency measures for both domestic and non-domestic consumers. Information on these can be obtained from the Energy Saving Trust:
