The Green Deal, the government's flagship energy efficiciency scheme, is coming and it will bring with it substantial changes to the way the construction sector does business The headline policy instrument of Zero Carbon Buildings will address only about 20 per cent of the building stock by 2050, the remainder having to be refurbished. The coalition's Green Deal, previously known as Pay as You Save under the Labour government, is designed to make the up-front costs of energy efficient refurbishment more palatable to homeowners and small businesses by deferring payment and financing it through future savings on utility bills.
