Reduce Carbon Emissions

VPhase plc has entered into the social housing market by signing an agreement with

a Northwest-based Housing Association to trial its new voltage optimisation device.

The trial, which took place between February and May 2010, saw the low-cost VPhase unit installed in a number of tenants' homes to monitor its ease of installation as well as independently measure its energy and carbon saving capability. Tenants involved in the trial were able to benefit from the immediate and significant money and energy savings the product delivers, without having to change their lifestyle of electricity supplier.

The low-cost VPhase unit reduces and stabilises the incoming voltage to homes and manages it to a stable level, normally 220V in the UK. The result is considerable reductions to electricity costs, reduced wasted energy and lower carbon emissions. It can be easily fitted by a qualified electrician, requires no maintenance and will instantly save energy across a wide range of appliances throughout the home.

Adds VPhase CEO Lee Juby: "We are already working with a number of major UK utilities to introduce VPhase units into homes nationwide. However, with an estimated 4 million homes in England, the social housing market is an extremely important sector for us. These results confirm that the VPhase unit will not only help social housing providers meet stringent carbon reduction targets, it will also help social housing become more affordable for the people that need it the most."Voltage optimisation technology has been saving industry millions each year but this is the first time that it has become available on a domestic scale. If every household in the UK used voltage optimisation, a typical home could save carbon emissions of 270kg every year - the equivalent of taking 2.3 million cars off the road.The CERT scheme, which came into force in 2008 and will run until 2011, sets an obligation on energy suppliers with 50,000 or more domestic customers, to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by promoting energy efficiency and other carbon reduction technologies to domestic energy users. The Government has set a CERT target of 154 million tonnes (lifetime) of CO2 and estimates that the new obligation will stimulate around 2.8 billion investment by energy suppliers in carbon reduction measures.by: Paul Myers.
