Some of our products are able to be installed with funding from Government accreditation giving homeowners, schools, community groups, sports clubs and other bodies access to Government grants of up to 35% towards the cost of installing ground source heat pumps; a heating system which uses thermal energy stored in the ground to heat buildings.
The Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) forms a key part in the ongoing development of the Governments’ £86m grant aided Low Carbon Building Programme (LCBP). The LCBP aims to reduce the carbon footprint of the UK’s buildings through encouraging the use of microgeneration systems like heat pumps.
Since the Low Carbon Buildings Programme launched in April 2006, approximately £25 million in grants have been claimed, £7.5 million of which has helped 4,600 households generate their own clean and green energy and £18 million helping a total of 739 projects on school, community, housing association and business buildings.
The MCS accreditation, which underpins the LCBP and replaces the previous ClearSkies scheme, gives assurance to consumers on the quality of products and installation services in a rapidly expanding sector; helping to ensure that the Government’s grant money is spent in a cost effective manner.
