Description

Green Deal, to be launched in October 2012, is a mechanism to enable energy efficiency improvements and the introduction of renewable energy to homes, business premises and community buildings with no up-front costs.

This FREE event explains how Green Deal will work and the opportunities offered to businesses through involvement in the Green Deal supply chain.

The Government anticipates that Green Deal will replace the existing supply chain for property improvements and renewable energy installations– businesses operating in this sector cannot therefore afford to ignore Green Deal.

This FREE session will be of interest to businesses (big and small) who wish to work within the Green Deal supply chain, such as construction companies, installers of energy efficiency measures and renewable energy technologies.

Although this is a free event it is essential to book using the online booking system below.
