What does the market need? The Green Deal creates a new market, but; • Suppliers need confidence in continuity of demand • Consumers need confidence in both vfm and guarantees • Both need consistency of pricing and consistent market conditions
The BES partnership in action Partnership is expressed in • Co-location • Co-creation and messaging • Shared commitment to social values • Contractual commitments to social, environmental and economic KPIs • Open book reporting
The first 75 days • 0800 number established over 9,000 calls made • 40 Community Organisations signed up as lead generators / ambassadors and making 1,100 e-referrals • Home visits and local lead generation in targeted areas to identify vulnerable households • 952 assessments scheduled • Over 900 vulnerable people signed up for Affordable Warmth ECO through local referrals and home visits • Work started on DECC Go Early, Fuel Poverty Action schemes (7 tower blocks, 2 schools, 5 community centres)
The first 75 days • 138 person days pre-employment support • 48 people into new jobs - 29 previously unemployed and 9 at risk of redundancy • 4 Business Action on Homeless work placements • 100+ SMEs engaged with 4 local companies contracted for assessments and 12 for insulation and heating measures
What we’ve learned • Strong community support for the BES package • Genuine customer interest, but poorly informed • Appetite for green jobs • Fragility of the supply chain and the destructive potential of the ECO market • ECO market is confused and energy companies are making a range of offers • “Fully Funded ECO” are scarce and need consideration
