Green heating conference in Liverpool set for autumn

Wirral-based water heater manufacturer Stiebel Eltron UK is hosting a green energy conference in the BT Convention Centre, Liverpool in October.

The Green Power Forum aims to examine best practice in renewable energy heat pump technology – a key weapon in driving down carbon emissions.

GPF chairman and Stiebel Eltron UK managing director Mark McManus said: "Heating is responsible for more than half of UK energy use. Both the public and private sector are under enormous pressure to find environmentally friendly alternative forms of heating away from oil and gas. Renewable energy heat pumps have a massive role to play in providing that alternative. We will be examining key areas including best practice, complying with legislation, products and the finance incentives for going green."

The event is supported by North West energy advisory agency Envirolink, Nu-Heat, ISO Energy UK and Liverpool Chamber of Commerce.
