Green Deal didn't deliver carbon emission savings, says NAO

摘要

A damning report from the National Audit Office has severely criticised the government's failed Green Deal initiative. The report said the scheme was poor value for money and failed to deliver carbon emission savings. It said the design and implementation of the scheme by the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) did not persuade householders that energy efficiency measures were worth paying for. According to the report, £240m of taxpayers' money was spent on the scheme.
