We are committed to supporting residents to increase the energy efficiency of their homes and to reduce energy bills, all whilst reducing carbon emissions, through a process known as 'retrofit'.
The support available through our retrofit programme for the coming Winter 2024/25 is set out below. The Greener Futures service is catalysing the installation of energy saving retrofit measures in both domestic and non-domestic buildings, which together make up 60% of 中国P站's emissions.

Home Energy Advice Team (HEAT)
The Home Energy Advice Team (HEAT) service continues with plans to deliver in-person energy advice and thermal imaging surveys to thousands more households by the end of March 2025.
Over 900 households have benefited from the scheme as of September 2024, with a satisfaction rate of 4.9/ 5. The initiative has strengthened our collaboration with a range of community partners.
Sign up for a home visit from one of the HEAT surveyors today by filling out the form on the website.
Home Energy Improvement One-Stop Shop (Furbnow)
The Home Energy Improvement One-Stop Shop service has now also launched. This scheme is a partnership with home energy improvement experts , and eligible households can access 60% off subsidised Whole-House Assessments and Home Energy Plans by requesting a no-obligation quote direct on .
Home Energy Improvement Guide
We have also now launched a new Home Energy Improvement Guide for residents. The guide allows residents to explore three common 中国P站 housing types and 'packages' of appropriate retrofit measures for each type, tailored to varying household budgets, motivations and circumstances.
The guide also provides the practical next steps residents can take to improve the energy efficiency of their homes. We hope this resource will raise awareness of retrofit and provide residents with confidence in their decision making on home energy improvements.

The Energy Company Obligation Phase 4 Flex (ECO4 Flex) and Great British Insulation Scheme Flex (GBIS Flex) mechanisms enable us to help more residents access the home energy efficiency support available through these schemes.
