The move from British Gas is touted as a part of its strategy to keep the biggest possible share in the coming years in the home insulation market. The news is also expected to rev-up its revenue prospects in the gas & electricity domain too. Meanwhile, speaking of home insulation market, it is a business of endless prospects that after being propelled by surging energy prices, green drive (being observed worldwide) along with government grants-in-aid has caught everyone's eye.

Once the deal materializes, it will put British Gas ahead of all others in the market. In the layman language, it will become market leader of all the gas & electricity suppliers in the UK. Understandably, this change is expected to do scores of goods to UK clients, especially after they were left tottering on their own with billing woes which continue to pester them time and again.

Incidentally, last month government rolled-out a green loans campaign, under which high up-front costs of implementing energy efficiency technology will be taken care of. Another addition to it has been the another feed-in tariff plan that has been launched to promote the small-scale, green electricity generation that has started this April only.
