As part of a district wide programme the Sustainable Parish Energy Partnership at South Cambridgeshire District Council is offering up to five households in Milton Parish free (These will cost £80 to £120 a time normally) Green Deal Assessments.

The key things they are looking for from households happy to have a free Assessment are:

1. That the Assessment could be quickly booked up by the Assessor with the householder at a convenient time from the 6th February onwards. The Assessor will obviously try and choose a day and time that works well for the householder but because they are going to have a lot of them to do in quite a short period we’re going to be looking for householders that can be fairly flexible with booking times. The assessors are going to be working pretty much flat-out mornings, afternoons and evenings 7 days a week and so will be looking for as much householder flexibility as possible in booking and filling all these time slots.
2. That properties have a reasonable potential for energy efficient improvements (i.e. aren’t owned by the already very energy conscious who have already done pretty much all that can be realistically achieved in energy saving measures).
3. That the participating householders are happy to have the data from their Green Deal Assessment and Report used anonymously to help create local community promotional material to boost Green Deal take up.

Householders need to be aware that the Green Deal Reports for their properties would be added to the national EPC register (as they are now when you move out of a property).
