VPhase is delighted to announce its sponsorship of the Sustainable Housing Awards 2012, having agreed to sponsor the “Social Housing Provider of the Year – Innovative Approach to Green Homes” award.
Importantly because of its low cost basis and zero maintenance requirement it is considered as the next most effective and affordable energy efficiency technology for the home, after insulation. With substantial portions of housing stock already insulated, VPhase Voltage Optimisation is a clear next step technology that has scale appeal, being universally suitable and quick to implement, with minimal disruption and requiring no behavioural change from tenants.
The VPhase unit itself reduces carbon emissions by c4.5 tonnes over the product’s 25+ year life and addresses fuel poverty issues by reducing tenant electricity bills by up to 12% annually. The VPhase device is the only true Voltage Optimisation product available for the domestic market in that it reduces and stabilises the voltage output, which is an important feature for continuity of supply. Completely maintenance free, the easy-to-install device is the smallest, lowest cost and most widely tested Voltage Optimisation unit on the market.
VPhase is also the top ranked Voltage Optimisation provider within the PfH framework and currently has trials ongoing with 55 social housing providers. The increased adoption of domestic Voltage Optimisation by this sector represents the importance of new thinking towards domestic energy saving.
The decision to sponsor the awards helps demonstrate the company’s continued commitment to social housing providers, illustrating the ongoing involvement and increased take-up of the technology. VPhase continues to demonstrate its commitment to this sector, having recently sponsored and spoken at the ICE Retrofit Solutions event in Birmingham. The team will also be on hand at the CIH Exhibition in Manchester from the 12th to the 14th June 2012 and continues to have a presence at many other regional and national conferences and exhibitions.
