Departmental Energy

Question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what (a) voltage optimisers and (b) equivalent technologies are used within buildings occupied by his Department.
Answer

In March 2009, HM Treasury Group was the first central Government Department to achieve the Carbon Trust's Carbon Standard for sustained improvement on a range of environmental indicators across its estate, and is committed to further improvements. It has achieved this without the installation of voltage optimisers or similar technology but keeps this under regular review.
