ESSEX: Housing maintenance specialist Apollo has launched a green division to help property owners upgrade their existing buildings.

Apollo's EcoFit programme will run across its housing, education and public building operations offering funding, design, installation and maintenance services.

Apollo said the new business will help clients "navigate the labyrinth of financial incentives available within the eco retrofitting arena".

Paul Johnson, Apollo's commercial director, said: "The result of many months' work, Apollo's EcoFit work stream has become our one stop shop for local authorities and housing associations looking to meet the Government's carbon reduction targets."
