Energy Efficiency Grants

With energy prices continuing to rise many people in the UK will struggle to keep their homes adequately warm this winter. The global market for oil has seen price rises which have, for the first time in many years, had a serious effect on many householders.

The government has put in place several schemes to help low income families and older people to keep their homes warm and with the help of many energy suppliers there are a good selection of grants available.

The main government led grants are:

• Winter Fuel Payments
• Cold Weather Payments
• Warm Front
• Warm Homes Discount

In order to help as many people as possible, UK energy companies also offer financial help and product incentives to ensure homes are more energy efficient so that people can stay warm in cold weather.

It is possible to receive help for:

• Loft Insulation
• Cavity Wall Insulation
• Low Energy Light Bulbs
• Boiler Systems
• Draught Proofing
• Renewable Energy (solar thermal)

Most of these schemes and grants require an application form and there are guidelines as to who is eligible for help and what level of help is available.
