answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/04/2021 answer text <p>As part of reaching Net Zero by 2050, the Clean Growth Strategy set out that all homes should reach EPC C by 2035 where cost effective, affordable, and practical. Double glazing is a popular energy efficiency measure and the English Housing Survey suggests that more than 85% of properties in England are fully double glazed, with less than 4% having no double glazing. As such, there is limited potential for further energy savings because so much of the stock already has efficient windows. Nevertheless, there are other benefits to more efficient glazing such as reduced internal noise, and improving the remaining single glazed windows would contribute to lower emissions.</p><p> </p><p>Five per cent[i] of annual Non-domestic buildings energy use can be abated by fabric improvements of which we estimate around a third are glazing.</p><p> </p><p>[i] Source: Building Energy Efficiency Survey, tables 4.5 and 3.1, at:</p><p><a href="https://eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gov.uk%2Fgovernment%2Fpublications%2Fbuilding-energy-efficiency-survey-bees&amp;data=04%7C01%7CBuky.Oshatogbe%40beis.gov.uk%7C7c0bc5f1d0be40918ff308d8ff4a79b6%7Ccbac700502c143ebb497e6492d1b2dd8%7C0%7C0%7C637540042628694930%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&amp;sdata=OpmqzYfPBMFrDro1DjUgQn8UyO1jtL%2BRJT%2B1Z674H8g%3D&amp;reserved=0" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/building-energy-efficiency-survey-bees</a></p> answering member constituency Berwick-upon-Tweed answering member printed Anne-Marie Trevelyan question first answered 21/04/2021 09:14:20 answering member 4531 label Biography information for Anne-Marie Trevelyan
