Why we face constant regulatory change
How have we arrived where we are today?
What can we expect in the future?
Key product issues now and in the future
The probable industry response
Change Is Not Negotiable!
• The Energy White Paper 2003
 To put ourselves on the path to cut the UK’s CO2 emissions by some 60% by
about 2050, with real progress by 2020
 To ensure every home is adequately and affordably heated
 To maintain the reliability of energy supplies
• The Energy Review 2005/6
 Further action needed on climate change beyond 2012
 Rising fuel prices
 UK is a net importer of gas and becoming a net oil importer

Sector
• WEEE/RoHS Directives
Europe
• Energy Using Products Directive
• Energy Performance in Buildings Directive
In A Nutshell
• Thermally efficient
Buildings
• Air tight
• Lower heat demand
• Ventilation challenge
• Highly efficient
Products
• Sustainable manufacture
• Local generation demand
• System specified
• Lower carbon central generation
Supply
• Financial incentives for local generation
• Electrical renaissance expected
• Better metering and tariff options
2006 Product Issues
•
•
•
•
Mechanical ventilation expansion
Predictive controls for electric heating
Highly efficient direct/storage systems
Introduction of new renewable offers
– Solar Thermal
– Heat pumps
– Micro wind and photovoltaic modules
Life In 2010
• 20% further improvement in buildings
• Tougher challenges:
– Diminishing returns on thermal performance
– Hot water dominant, low heat load (1-2kW)
– Adequate fresh air in an air tight house
• Probable emphasis towards ventilation,
solar and heat pumps
2010 – Product Issues
• ‘Services’ integration
(traditional heating/ventilation/renewables combinations)
– Revised SAP approach
– Clear package exemplars for dwelling types
• Consolidated supply routes
(single supply and distribution/professional contractor
relationships)
– Product and design training
– Marketing support
– Design services
The Next 5 years
• Large manufacturers backing systems
(big players will drive renewables)
• Distribution framework will converge
(merchant and wholesaler takeovers)
• Introduction of Super Contractors
(supported by manufacturers and aligned to the brands)
Change Can Be OK
• If you understand the policy vision
and
• If the industry works towards that vision…
in a focused and business like fashion.
