17/12/09 Green Deal - West Sussex County Council
West Sussex County Council has been chosen as a pilot for the Conservative Party’s ‘Green Deal’ scheme, should they win next year’s General Election.
The ‘Green Deal’ would be piloted by 14 local councils and the Mayor of London and would give households the chance to have home energy efficiency improvements of up to £6,500 with no upfront costs.
This would save money on the household energy bill immediately. The money would be paid back over 25 years through the energy bill.
West Sussex Leader Henry Smith said: “I am delighted West Sussex has been chosen as a pilot for this scheme, which would be provided at no cost to the County Council.
“The County Council is known for being at the forefront of sustainability, and the fact we have been chosen as an area for the pilot scheme, should the Conservatives win the next General Election, is potentially good news for all residents.
“The ‘Green Deal’ would provide major benefits for residents by helping them save energy and money in their household, while adding to the wider picture of helping our environment and reducing carbon dioxide emissions.”
