Green Deal

PAREXTHERM External Wall Insulation Systems provide the key to effective thermal upgrades using retrofit solutions which meet Green Deal and ECO standards.
Green Deal and the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) replaced the Carbon Emissions Reduction Target (CERT) and the Community Energy Saving Programme (CESP) at the end of 2012.


ECO will place obligations on the energy companies requiring them to generate a specific amount of carbon credits by facilitating the installation of energy efficiency measures in homes


in Great Britain before a set deadline. ECO has been designed to fit within the Green Deal Framework and provide support, where Green Deal finance alone is not enough.

Ofgem is the Office of the Gas and Electricity Markets


DECC is the Department for Energy and Climate Change


Ofgem and DECC are involved in Green Deal where energy companies have obligations to provide a range of funding initiatives to assist in reducing carbon emissions.


In the context of the Green Deal and ECO, Ofgem ensures that any system that is offering these EWI services has achieved a third party accreditation such as a


British Board of Agr ment Certificate (BBA) or a European Technical Approval (ETA). Any EWI system that does not have one of these accreditations does not receive Ofgem


approval and this prevents the energy companies from offering any funding support for schemes where the improvement in the thermal performance of dwellings is required.

Green Deal - provides finance to pay for retrofit energy efficiency measures on many different types of structure.


Green Deal is a market led framework that will allow individuals and businesses to make energy efficiency improvements to their buildings.


Central to the Green Deal is a finance mechanism that will allow access to the finance needed for these improvements with repayment made by instalments attached to the electricity bill.
