DECC estimate that at the start of April 2012, 9.7 million properties have benefited from at least one major insulation measure. By the end of 2022 DECC estimate that an additional 4.8 million properties that have not already been in receipt of at least one insulation measure, via either the Energy Efficiency Commitment (EEC), Carbon Emission Reductions Target (CERT) or Community Energy Savings Programme (CESP), would receive one or more major insulation measures.
