The Warm Homes Plan has been the single biggest policy update for the household energy sector so far this Parliament. Setting targets and policies for home decarbonisation, the plan is critical to cutting energy bills, tackling fuel poverty and breaking the UK’s reliance on volatile gas markets. However, following the plans publication, there are many questions remaining regarding how the government will deliver on these ambitions in reality.
On Tuesday 17 March we heard from Martin McCluskey MP, minister for energy consumers, on the UK government's priorities following the recently published Warm Homes Plan. Minister McCluskey joined Madeleine Gabriel, Director in the sustainable future mission, Nesta and discussed the next steps and how various organisations can play a role in accelerating home decarbonisation.
This hybrid event took place at 58 Victoria Embankment, London. The event was for stakeholders and decision-makers in the sector, including those from energy and installer organisations, think tanks and local authorities, as well as property developers and home builders.
