Naturesave Insurance in 'green energy' household launch

Eco insurance provider Naturesave Insurance has launched a new household insurance policy covering domestic renewable energy installations.

The Naturesave household renewable energy insurance policy has been developed in response to rising demand for home energy systems, due to concerns about the environment and rising fuel prices, the company said.

"Naturesave has been at the leading edge of ethical and environmental insurance for 15 years, and this new product is a natural addition to our household policy," said managing director Matthew Criddle.

"We already give discounts to householders for energy saving measures in their homes and many of our existing household insurance clients currently have renewable energy systems installed. We are pleased to be able to include this additional cover and understand that it is the only product of its kind in the UK at the moment."
