South Coast green breakfast - making the green deal a great deal

Blake Lapthorn, B&Q and KPMG were delighted to welcome David Adams, Head of Retrofit at Willmott Dixon to its fourth South Coast green breakfast which took place on Tuesday 24 April 2012.

details

We were joined by David Adams, Head of Retrofit at Willmott Dixon Re-Thinking Ltd and a Director at the Zero Carbon Hub where he has led Task Groups on Energy Efficiency.

With the cost of energy soaring, increasing concern over security of supply and investment in green jobs creeping up the political agenda a new flagship coalition policy, the Green Deal is taking shape. The policy sets the ambition to provide upfront capital to enable homeowners to invest to cut energy use and make their home more comfortable to live in. The sheer scale of the targets trying to be delivered, the multitude of standards and safeguards that need to be met and the levels of investment by multiple players in the market make this a topic that induces much debate.

David Adams was instrumental in establishing the notion of ‘Pay as you Save’, has been heavily involved in shaping standards for ‘Zero Carbon’ homes and at Willmott Dixon Energy Services is formulating strategy for one of the top ten Green Deal providers. David will share his thoughts on how the land lies, set out some of the challenges that lie ahead and provide his thoughts on just how small business, local authorities and community groups can join in to make the Green Deal a great deal.
