Consumer Protection For Home Energy Efficiency And Renewable Energy

Purpose of the group

The Group will inform MSPs of the issues and challenges currently facing some consumers who have purchased renewable energy and home energy efficiency products through the UK Government’s Green Deal Initiative. It will also provide a forum for stakeholders, energy efficiency providers and other interested parties to engage directly in dialogue to inform developments and practice which impact on consumers, across the energy efficiency and renewable energy sector, covering the entire consumer journey, ensuring the benefits of emerging technologies are realised and that consumers are not detrimentally affected.
