The Government's strategy for saving energy and decarbonising our heating, now and into the future, has four main objectives:

• To help more people in these difficult economic times and over the long term to reduce their energy bills by using less energy;
• To reduce the UK's emissions and increase our use of renewable energy in line with the demands of our carbon budgets, our renewables target and our ultimate target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050;
• To help us to maintain secure, diverse energy supplies; and
• To take advantage of the economic opportunities presented by the shift to a low-carbon economy in the UK, and in the rest of the world, helping us during the current economic downturn and over the long term.

To help us achieve our goals on energy saving and low-carbon heat all sections of society need to play their part — individual householders, communities, businesses, the public sector and industry.
