Consultation on Energy Efficiency

The Energy Efficiency Deployment Office (EEDO) has been set up to drive a step change in energy efficiency in the UK economy and is making a call for evidence, with a closing date of 4 April, as its first big step towards developing an energy efficiency strategy.

EEDO writes:

Energy efficiency is at the heart of the government’s approach to tackling dangerous climate change and ensuring safe, secure and affordable energy supplies. Energy efficiency is often the quickest and most cost effective solution when compared with the alternatives, saving on energy bills and displacing more costly renewables deployment.

EEDO will:

· be the Government’s centre of expertise on energy efficiency

· support the coherent delivery of our existing energy efficiency policies

· develop the Government’s energy efficiency strategy (to be published by the end of 2012), including where there is further potential for energy efficiency across the economy and how this might be arrived at

EEDO comprises some 50 civil servants with expertise in analysis, economics, customer insight, statistics and policy delivery.

As part of developing our energy efficiency strategy we have launched an eight week ‘Call for Evidence’ as the first big step towards this strategy. This will close on 4 April 2012 and responses should be sent to the eedostrategy@decc.gsi.gov.uk email address
