New Grants now available from Home Energy Scotland

Post in Community Energy by Ewan Bush
Home Energy Scotland now offer up to 75% grants for home energy saving measures and renewable heating systems that may be combined with interest free loans.

Grant funding for energy efficiency improvements is up to 75% of the combined cost of the improvements, up to the maximum grant amount of £7,500, or £9,000 for households which qualify for the rural uplift.

  • Are you a homeowner? Great news - if you live in the home you own, then you can apply. 
  • Building your own home? You can use the grant and loan for home renewables systems or energy storage systems; other improvements aren't available if it's a self-build.
  • Grant funding for heat pumps is up to £7,500, or £9,000 for households which qualify for the rural uplift. The remainder of funding requested can be taken up as an optional interest-free loan.
  • Biomass boilers or stoves (non-automated, non-pellet stoves or room heaters are not eligible): £15,000 (£7,500 grant potentially available upon evidence that a heat pump is unsuitable for the property (£9,000 if the household qualifies for the rural uplift).
