Grants and External Funding
Phew, we were fortunate that we managed to get our Low Carbon Building Programme application submitted just before the scheme was prematurely closed. If we are successful this will contribute towards the cost of the solar hot water system we have specified (up to 50%). I understand it’s due to be assessed shortly and we will be notified soon on whether we have been successful.
I’ve also had verbal confirmation from British Gas that they will provide CERT funding towards the insulation works we are doing. Potentially this represents a reasonable sum of money which is much appreciated. If you happen to be involved in one of the retrofit projects (or you are a social housing provider undertaking energy refurbishment works) I would strongly recommend contacting the energy companies to see what funding is available.
