Heating and Ventilating

BusinessGreen has joined forces with four other leading green media companies, ClickGreen, GreenWise, Renewable Energy Installer and YouGen, to implement a voluntary three-month ‘blackout’ on rogue solar pv companies trying to exploit consumers who are confused about the Feed-in Tariff.
The move aims to protect readers and reputable solar firms from misleading claims about the current level of incentives for solar installations. It follows a spate of press releases and online advertisements aimed at the consumer which carry misleading claims and deliberately try to exploit the current confusion in the marketplace, the companies say.

The B2B and B2C network of the biggest online sites will create and maintain a blacklist of companies which will then be refused editorial and marketing space.
