<p>The Department is planning to publish a Heat and Building Strategy later this year,
which will set out the immediate actions we will take for reducing emissions from
buildings, including existing commercial properties. These include the deployment
of energy efficiency measures and low carbon heating as part of an ambitious programme
of work required to enable key strategic decisions on how we achieve the mass transition
to low-carbon heat. We are developing policies to deliver low carbon heating in the
2020s and put us on the pathway to delivering net zero by 2050. We are spending £2.8bn
under the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) between 2018 and 2021 to encourage the deployment
of low carbon heating in homes and businesses. The Non-domestic RHI scheme has been
open to commercial, industrial, public sector, not for profit and community generators
of renewable heat since November 2011.</p>
