Solid Wall Insulation (SWI) has a key role to play in the success of the Green Deal and Energy Company Obligation (ECO) and a significant increase in volumes will be required going forward.
To support this growth, the National Insulation Association (NIA) has today announced plans to create a new forum involving key external stakeholders to work together in driving forward the market for SWI under the Green Deal and ECO.
Neil Marshall, Chief Executive of the NIA, commented: “The NIA and its members are committed to developing the SWI market in a controlled and sustainable way, ensuring that quality and standards are maintained; however, we cannot do this alone. Partnerships and collaborative working with other organisations across the sector will be needed to facilitate the successful mass market roll out of SWI.
“To this end, we are establishing a new forum and inviting representatives from key organisations including; energy suppliers, social housing providers, local councils, Green Deal Providers, consumer groups and training providers to join the forum and work with us in developing the expansion plans.”
