Bright Green Homes
Bristol Energy Network’s working to recruit householders to the Bright Green Homes initiative being run by Bristol, B&NES and North Somerset councils.
The three authorities have secured funding through the government’s Home Upgrade Grant to fund and support eligible households to install a range of insulation and low carbon technologies including:
- External Wall Insulation
- Cavity Wall Insulation
- Loft Insulation
- Underfloor Insulation
- Air source heat pump
- Solar PV
- Double glazing and energy efficient doors
Who qualifies for Bright Green Homes funding?
To qualify households will need to meet the following criteria:
- A combined annual household income of £30,000 per year or under.
- A valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) with a rating of D, E, F or G. Please still apply if your property doesn’t currently have an EPC as a pre-install EPC can be arranged if you meet the financial eligibility criteria.
- A property without gas central heating (only open to households who use electric or non-gas fossil fuel heating source such as coal, oil, wood, LPG).
- A resident of either of the Bath & North East Somerset, Bristol or North Somerset local authority areas.
- An owner-occupier, landlord or private rented tenant of the property.
The scheme is being administered by Bristol City Council’s Energy Service on behalf of the three local authorities.
This project is due to end by March 2023, the funding is limited and we expect it to be in high demand.
