Changes To The RHPP (Renewable Heat Premium Payment) Scheme
Key changes have been made to the householder stream of the Renewable Heat Premium Payment (RHPP) announced by the Department of Energy and Climate Change on 20 May 2013. If you are considering a project involving a Ground Source or Air Source Heat Pump then this article will be of interest to you.
As part of the Department of Energy and Climate Change’s desire to further support the growing market for domestic renewables, the Government has considered new data available on installation costs/recent feedback from industry and has decided to increase the voucher levels for each of the four eligible technologies. The new levels are:
- Air Sorce Heat Pumps = £1,300
- Ground Soure Heat Pumps = £2,300
In addition, new applicants from the date of this article will also be required to undertake a Green Deal Assessment before submitting a claim for payment of their voucher. The Assessment will help consumers to choose the most appropriate new technology for their home and circumstances. As the voucher levels are being increased, this additional money will cover the costs of an Assessment.
We hope the additional money available will encourage even more people to consider switching to renewable heating. Thermo-Floor are well placed to service your project and we can provide more information about the RHPP system on 01455 203205.
