Leeds City Region – Domestic Energy Efficiency Project (DEEP)
Context
•
Government has challenging carbon saving targets with
key targets at 2026 and 2050
•
Domestic (household) CO2 savings can contribute a
significant amount to the overall target
•
Leeds City Region contains over 1.2million households
and provides 5.6% of the national energy market
•
Local authorities within the LCR have developed public
private partnerships to deliver CO2 savings and have
developed expertise and shown their enthusiasm through
doing

Some Questions
• Is the whole house approach the right
approach?
• Are we right to focus on private sector
households?
• How can LCR best grow green jobs?
• What needs to happen to ensure local business
is supported?
• How do we build a programme which recognises
innovation, new technology and funding
opportunities will constantly present new
opportunities for domestic carbon savings?

Objectives
•
To deliver Government CO2 targets to our
customer and housing stock we need a
whole house approach and sequence the
delivery of certain measures;
–
–
–
–
–
To save maximum carbon
Create sustainable green jobs
Reduce fuel poverty
Stimulate private sector innovation
Embrace technological advances at the right time
– Cost effective CO2 savings for customers

Leeds City Region – Local Carbon Framework
DEEP Principles
• Encourage LCR members to adopt the five
DEEP principles
1. Quality independent data collection at one visit
2. Whole house approach - insulation, Air tightness (drafts), heating,
micro generation, behaviour
3. Customer Choice - Immediate or Gradual carbon savings
4. Customers to access opportunity in an open carbon
market
5. LCR able to provide strategic investment lead by
directing any subsidy it is able to attract

DRGF Bid focus
• Focus on private sector households and not social
housing initially
• The scheme delivers a programme 2011-2014:
– 51000 physical carbon saving measures (of which 46000 are insulation)
– 19000 behavioural change measures
– 751 green jobs – (342 net additional and up to 48 public to private
sector transition jobs)
– 9.7m public sector investment
– 36m+ private sector investment
• LCR using the local Carbon Framework Pilot to test

DEEP Partnership Framework – preferred model
Framework to cover 10 local authorities, 1 procurement process, framework contracts
provided to obligated energy suppliers who will lead a consortium of suppliers
and installers of measures, consortiums could include management agents to
support smaller local business and small, medium and large companies able to
deliver the range of measures. Framework contractors would ensure CERT
commitment is in place up to December 2012
12
DEEP Partnership Framework – preferred model 2-4
framework consortium
90% of LCR fitted measures will be delivered through the framework, Framework
contractors will be allocated a share of the volume work and focus delivery in
core localities. Framework performance monitoring to allow reward.
Customers choosing to go direct to market is capped at 10%. If there is
underuse of this opportunity additional allocation will be available to reward the
best performing partners

**Assumed each local authority receives same proportion of whole house surveys relative to its LCR household share
**Assumed that all localities convert whole house surveys to measures in an identical way
** the programme would build in mechanism to prevent overall programme slippage if measures could not be achieved or were slow in any locality

CERT Policy Developments
• CERT will end December 2012
• Replacements by the Green Deal (£6,500 pay as you save
+ potentially £3,500 additional grant for vulnerable households) and
potentially a Energy Carbon Obligation (smaller but
could be similar to CERT to help deliver low cost insulation measures)
• Principles by which cert is restricted especially
post April 2011

Confidence that carbon savings are realised
Avoidance of deadweight
Focus on non traded sector
Positive impact on vulnerable households
