VAT cuts to unlock £1bn green homes revolution
Jack Pringle, EMEA regional director at global architects Perkins and Will, said:
“A VAT cut on home improvements and refurbishments would have a significant effect on the built environment’s ability to reach net-zero by the middle of the century. With the collapse of the Green Deal initiative, it?s the existing building stock that remains the big greenhouse gas emitter with no systemic way of being tackled. Without shifts in taxation and policy, a huge amount of it will remain inefficient to run and financially unviable to retrofit. As a result, the high carbon footprint of our industry will continue unabatedly. Designing, delivering and operating net-zero buildings is possible and financially feasible with the technology at our disposal. But without tackling the monumental problem of old and carbon-intensive stock, the green revolution will never materialise. We argued for these VAT changes back in 05 when I headed up the RIBA and I would encourage the Institute and CIC to get behind this initiative.”
