Environment, energy, sustainable building
DECC recently ran a consultation on electricity demand reduction (closed January 31st, 2013). I worked with David Olivier and other AECB members to help to compile the AECB’s response, which can be read/downloaded here -with kind permission of the AECB.
Electricity Demand Reduction – AECB response to DECC
The response drew in particular on AECB’s report Less is More, which also informed the short article on energy efficiency I posted on this site earlier.
This is the first part of a two-part article on the Green Deal and ECO, that appeared in Green Building Magazine, Winter 2012, in a pdf (without illustrations) to view or download.
DECC ran a blog in November defending the subsidies for burning woody biomass. The comments (including my own) were pretty overwhelmingly against what DECC had to say.

I wrote this short item to include with my response to the DECC consultation on sustainability standards for biomass generation
