The Department of Energy & Climate Change is inviting people to join its LinkedIn discussion on ways to improve the non-domestic RHI scheme, ahead of its review next year.
According to DECC, the non-domestic RHI has driven the uptake of 0.5TWH of renewable heat and given out £21.8 million in incentive payments since its launch in November 2011.
To date, DECC’s focus for the RHI has been on maximising the cost-effective deployment of renewable heat (within budget), addressing key issues and extending the scheme to other renewable heat technologies. Now, the organisation says it can do more to improve the quality and value for money that the scheme offers, as well as increase the quantity of heat deployed – and is encouraging people to get in touch and share their views.
DECC has shared three themes around which it plans to frame the review, to encourage discussion:

People are encouraged to comment by Friday 20 December.
