Most of the grants
and offers you can benefit from are provided by three
main groups.
The
Government
The UK Government funds schemes providing up to £2,700
to households on certain benefits (see below for examples
of eligibility criteria) to improve their heating
and energy efficiency. In England the scheme is known
as Warm Front, in Northern Ireland it is Warm Homes,
in Scotland it is Warm Deal and the Central Heating
Programme and in Wales it is the Home Energy Efficiency
Scheme. The eligibility criteria for the schemes differ
between countries - with some schemes you need to
be in receipt of certain benefits, whilst others are
available to anyone over a certain age. Full details
can be found on the websites listed below.
Examples of Warmfront
eligibility criteria - If you own your own home or
rent it from a private landlord and if:
You are 60 years or
older and are in receipt of one or more benefits.
Benefits include: income support, council tax benefit,
housing benefit, job seekers allowance and pension
credit.
or
You have a child under 16 or you are pregnant and
have been given maternity MAT B1 and are also in receipt
of benefits such as income support, council tax benefit
etc.
or
You are in receipt of one or more benefits such as
disability living allowance, child tax credit with
an income of less than £15,592pa, housing
benefit and disability premium etc.
Then you could be entitled to a warm
front grant.
Energy
Suppliers
The Government's Energy Efficiency Commitment means
energy suppliers with a certain number of customers
operating in Great Britain are obliged to achieve
targets for improving home energy efficiency. The
suppliers therefore provide a range of offers which
significantly reduce the cost of installing energy
efficiency measures. What's more, you can take up
offers from any of the energy companies, regardless
of who supplies your gas and electricity.
Local
authorities
Most Local authorities provide grants and offers for
local residents to install certain energy efficiency
measures in their home.
