Energy Efficient Heating Upgrades With Government Grants.
The grant scheme is focused initially on vulnerable and low income households in a bid to reduce UK instances of fuel poverty. Ideal for homeowners or tenants.
Fuel poverty is defined as a household that is not able to adequately heat their property at an affordable cost.
Fuel Poverty And Funding.
As a guide fuel poverty is said to occur when more than 10% of a household’s income is spent on heating the home to an adequate level. Recent increases in fuel prices has led to a sharp increase of the number of UK home owners in this predicament.
Eligibility For HHCRO Funding Grants.
Homeowners or private renting tenants that claim certain state benefits or those that qualify via their Council’s own eligibility criteria (if available), could qualify for funding to cover or contribute towards a range of energy saving measures. There is also opportunities for tenants in Social Housing in certain circumstances.
