Summary of the EEA Energy Efficiency Sector Survey

 

Summary of the EEA Energy Efficiency Sector Survey (November 2020)

 

 

Between the 13th and 19th of November 2020, the EEA carried out a survey amongst its members to gauge the impact COVID-19 and the Green Homes Grant were having on the energy efficiency sector.

 

The response was good for such a brief window of opportunity to participate, with 46 companies replying to the the questionnaire.

 

The responses were mixed, but a clear pattern has emerged. The industry has been badly hit by the Coronavirus lockdown restrictions, and the industry is concerned about the Green Homes Voucher Scheme.

 

However there are really encouraging signs that the damage done to the sector can be reversed during the early part of the New Year.
