Public funding made available for the implementation of
energy-efficiency measures in the UK rose from €330 million to €440 million
(£260 million to £350 million) between 2012 and 2014, according to research
from leading energy consultancy Ecofys.
The study found that the majority of funding that yielded
this 35 per cent rise was provided under Climate Change Agreements, while other
sources included the Green Deal and RE:FIT programme.
Following publication of the figures, the European Council
for an Energy Efficient Economy (ECEEE) expressed concerns that “many
investments which would make economic sense are still not realised” and that
more must be done to “ensure that the legislative framework encourages these
opportunities.”
In short, the message is that, while such an increase in
funding for energy-efficiency measures is positive, there is still great
potential for increasing energy efficiency.
