Green the Energy Bill - Part 2

Power to the People

Last month thousands of you asked your MP to Green the Energy Bill.

The result? Government agreed to include powers to support local renewables. These include:

• A feed-in tariff
  Guaranteed payments for those who invest in green electricity.
• A heat incentive
  Support for schemes like solar thermal

The Bill should help communities, businesses, and homeowners wanting to invest in small-scale renewable energy.

This would massively boost green energy in the UK.

Loop-Holes

But the proposals are weak.

But the Currently the Bill has:

• No deadline
  Feed-in tariffs and heat incentives must be introduced within one year.
• No guarantee
  Government could still opt for less effective schemes.

Join the Energy Revolution

The Energy Bill could be a vital tool in the fight against climate change.

To do this it must commit the UK to feed-in tariffs and renewable heat within one year.

Please ask your MP to green the Energy Bill.  

Sorry this action has now expired.
