But this ain’t Brexit folks, it’s the modern monarchy and its growing pains have become audible. More accurately, these are shrinking pains — since the top executives at the firm (better known as Her Majesty the Queen, the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Cambridge) decided last year to focus on a slimmed-down Royal Family, focusing on the immediate heirs.

HECA summary On the 26 July 2012 the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change issued new guidance to English Energy Conservation Authorities (ECAs) setting out their obligations pursuant to the Home Energy Conservation Act (HECA) 19951. The City of Wakefield Metropolitan District Council (WMDC) is an ECA. This document represents WMDC’s submitted initial Home Energy Conservation Act (HECA) report to the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change for March 2013. 2. Introduction The guidance sets out requirements for ECAs to report on the energy conservation measures it considers practicable, cost-effective and likely to result in significant improvement in the energy efficiency of residential accommodation in their areas. The significant improvements can result from measures which take advantage of financial assistance from central Government initiatives such as Green Deal, Energy Company Obligation (ECO) and the Renewable Heat Incentive and which have been developed using area based/street by street roll out involving local communities and partnerships.

  • Citywide Climate Change Strategy & Action Plan 2010
    Citywide Climate Change Strategy & Action Plan 2010 - 2020 Delivering Newcastle’s Sustainable Community Strategy Foreword We realise the need for a citywide climate change strategy, one that provides a comprehensive response to the threats and opportunities that we face. We also recognise the urgent need to secure a low carbon future and prepare for a changing climate. I’m proud to say the strategy goes much further than before. It raises our ambitions and sets out how we plan to deliver against national and European commitments. At the heart of the strategy is our Sustainable Energy Action Plan that sets out a scenario to reduce our carbon emissions, and makes us confident enough to commit to our Newcastle Climate Change Declaration, adopted by the full Council in March 2010. The strategy also contains plans to adapt to the impacts of a changing climate. These will help us to seize the opportunities that a low carbon future presents, and to protect our heritage and citizens into a sustainable future. We all have a part to play, from our day-to-day actions and efforts to live in a low carbon future, to the development, delivery and uptake of physical measures to minimise our impact on the environment. This presents significant economic opportunities for our City. However, we cannot do this without understanding and preparing to live with the inevitable risks of a changing climate. Although the strategy lays the foundations for these actions, achieving our goals will not be easy. In this time of austerity we need to be bold in our choices and strong in our convictions, so that we make the decisions necessary for the future.

List of further support Introduction So, you want to develop a community renewable energy project… Background The inspiration for the production of this brochure came largely from the process of developing the promotional brochure for the fourteen projects supported by the Northumberland Strategic Partnership Renewable Energy Capital Grant Scheme, which was made available in 2007-08 to support a number of demonstration schemes. In talking to the recipients of the grant, many of the people involved in developing projects heaved a big sigh and proclaimed that they were glad If only I had….. that they’d got there in the end but “if only I had ….” or “if I was to do it again I’d make sure…..”. Many of these experiences came from community groups or small businesses who had faced interacting with not only the renewable energy sector, but the whole process of contracting large works for the first time with little more than home renovation experience to go on. If I was to do it It became apparent that much of the real value of again I would…. supporting such projects was not only the resulting demonstration of the technology but also the opportunity to capture this learning process that individuals and groups have been through to reach a successful project.
