Legal & General Mortgage Club has launched an educational green hub to help support the mortgage industry move towards net zero.
The hub has a calendar of key milestones for industry professionals to be aware of which currently stretches to 2035, covering areas such as Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) ratings, heat pumps, and new build properties.
It also includes webinars on topics that cover green mortgages and the impact of the green agenda on mortgage affordability, and compiles a range of resources from the government, Ofgem, Simple Energy Advice, and the Energy Saving Trust.
Opinion pieces from wider industry experts, including those from Danske Bank UK, LendInvest, and West One Loans, are also available to users of the hub, L&G confirmed.
“This is a complex and rapidly changing area, so we are delighted to further our support for our valued adviser and lender communities,” commented L&G Mortgage Club head of lender relationships, Danny Belton. “The record temperatures seen across the UK in the last few weeks brings the importance of supporting the green agenda into sharp focus.
“This is a passionate project for us and we look forward to developing it in the coming years as we quickly approach the 2050 net zero deadline.”
