Lack of funding forces Zero Carbon Hub to close

摘要

A body set up to advise government and housebuilders on zero-carbon homes will close after running out of money, writes Yoosof Farah. The Zero Carbon Hub, a public private partnership created during the last Labour government in 2008 to help deliver zero-carbon homes, was due to close yesterday (31 March) after its board members refused to carry on funding the organisation. It will be put into a dormant state with its office in London to close, but the hub's website will be maintained. An official announcement confirming the news was issued today, along with confirmation that industry funding for the body has been pulled.
