GREEN DEAL, ENERGY COMPANY OBLIGATIONS AND TRADITIONAL BUILDINGS

Posted on

Historic Scotland have produced the above Technical Paper (No. 17), a reworking of the earlier material issued in Technical Paper 16, seeking to further update homeowners and building professionals on some of the considerations when planning Green Deal measures in older buildings.

Three properties are documented – a sandstone cottage in south west Scotland, a sandstone tenement flat in central Scotland and a granite cottage in north east Scotland.

Technical Paper 17 is complimentary reading to Technical Paper 16 and a further Paper will also be issued in due course considering the Green Deal modelling software and its use on older traditionally built properties.

The full document can be downloaded from Historic Scotland’s website.

At Bowlts, we have a team of knowledgeable staff who have experience in the alteration and upgrading of traditional buildings and would be happy to assist in discussing options for improvements. For more information, please contact Susan Longmuir on 01343 890400 or email enquiries@bowlts.com
