Further funding for UK micro generation

Posted on 31. Oct, 2006 by ashleys in Micro Generation, News

Due to high demand for grants from the Low Carbon Buildings Programme (LCBP) by the home market since the scheme launched in April this year, a further £6.2 million is to be transfered to the householder stream.

“Through the huge response to the Low Carbon Buildings Programme we have already allocated over £3m of grants to households installing microgeneration – the demand has been so great that this represents half the total household budget in only the first year of the programme,” said Energy Minister Malcolm Wicks. “To enable it to continue this good work I am pleased to announce that we are re-allocating a further £6.2m of the programme funding to the householder workstream. On projected demand levels this should allow us to operate the grant programme until mid 2008.”
