The European Commission President Jean Claude Juncker yesterday announced a £250bn investment plan to navigate brand new ventures throughout Europe, encompassing renewable energy and power network upgrades. Mr Juncker stated that the European fund would "breath new life" into Europe. The core is a €21bn fund which would produce funds for infrastructure projects. Mr Juncker is counting his lucky stars that the remaining funds come in the form of private investors as only €16bn would actually materialise from the European Union budget. Bernadette Segnol the general secretary of the European Trade Union Confederation urged that the commission was relying on a 'financial miracle'. She also went onto say that she had no confidence that €315bn could be raised from just €21bn claiming the plans as totally unrealistic. The commission insists that it could produce up to 1.3 million jobs including investment in transport, broadband, energy networks as well as education. Discussing the plan the European Heat Pump Associated said "We hope the plan will in particular trigger investment towards the use of cleaner technologies for heating and cooling in Europe." How can I save energy at home? There are multiple strategies you can implement to help save energy within your home. Insulation is probably one of the most beneficial. Remember by installing a good quality insulation equates to less energy demand to heat your home. Many of us in the UK are also considering new energy efficient heating products such as designer electric radiators due to their high energy saving performance and cost effective installation. Insulating your home doesn't automatically mean loft insulation although this is one of the most easiest to implement. Insulating your home can include a vast array of methods such as underfloor insulation, draught proofing, windows, tanks, pipes and radiator reflector panels. These are an alluring low cost choice, fitted behind your radiator they work by bouncing heat from your radiators back into the room preventing it from escaping through external walls. These are particularly useful when installed on uninsulated walls. -- My Electric Radiators are a leading energy news provider distributing you the most up to date and noteworthy information throughout the UK.
