Last chance - free energy-saving upgrades for eligible West Northants homeowners

Posted 1 week ago in West Northamptonshire Council

Residents who have an annual base income of less than £36,000 could be missing out on free energy-saving updates to heat their homes and save money.

Those eligible have until the end of September to register for the Home Upgrade Grant (HUG) to ensure any approved works are installed before the scheme ends, which could include insulation, solar panels, low carbon heating systems and more.

The retrofitting scheme is funded by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) and managed by the Greater South East Net Zero Hub (GSENZH) and West Northamptonshire Council (WNC).

To be eligible for free upgrades, households must have a combined annual income of less than £36,000 (including benefits) or live in a specific postcode area, their properties must not be heated through mains gas, and they should be considered hard-to-heat homes.

To check if you’re eligible and apply, visit  www.hugapply.co.uk or call delivery partners Agility Eco on 0800 107 8883.
