- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps his Department is taking to support local energy efficiency and demand reduction measures for commercial premises in Bradford.
- Answer
-
Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards are in place for non-domestic buildings, meaning that most non-domestic properties cannot be leased with an Energy Performance Certificate below band E. This Department consulted on strengthening these standards and will publish the response in due course.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers grants of £7500 towards the cost of purchasing and installing heat pumps.
The Government also funds the UK Business Climate Hub, an online resource supporting Small and Medium Enterprises reduce their energy use. Specific funding is available through Bradford Council’s Local Industrial Decarbonisation Project and the West Yorkshire Combined Authority’s Business Sustainability Support.
