(1)
A local heat and energy efficiency strategy is a long-term strategic framework for—
(a)
the improvement of the energy efficiency of buildings in the local authority’s area, and
(b)
the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the heating of such buildings.
(2)
A local heat and energy efficiency strategy is, in particular, to include proposals in relation to the way in which buildings in the local authority’s area are heated can be altered, in order to—

(b)
reduce the emission of greenhouse gases produced by or otherwise associated with the heating of such buildings.
