The scheme may support upgrades such as insulation, low-carbon heating systems, solar panels, and other energy-saving improvements for privately owned homes.
The scheme aims to:
- reduce energy bills
- deal with fuel poverty
- support the UK’s net zero carbon emissions target by 2050
We have been given funding from the government to deliver local improvements. Funding is limited and subject to availability.
We are focusing funding on homes where improvements are straightforward and cost-effective in these property groups:
- Council Tax bands A to D
- standard property type and construction
This provides the greatest benefit to the most vulnerable households, helping people to stay warm and reduce energy bills.
We continue to work with national partners to highlight the limitations of the current scheme and push for special support for the complex and hard-to-treat properties that exist in some areas of the county.
