Make your home more energy efficient with Fareham Borough Council

Fareham Borough Council has partnered with energy efficiency consultancy and installer, City Energy, to offer residents across the Borough FREE home energy improvements.

Residents with a household income of less than £30,000 a year, or those who receive income related benefits, are likely to be eligible for home improvements of up to £10,000.

Thanks to a Government funding scheme to improve the energy performance of UK homes, Fareham residents can benefit from a share of £8.6 million allocated for the whole of the Solent region.  

Home improvements could include measures such as solar panels, new insulation, double glazing or even a new front door; all with the goal to deliver sustainable warmth, reduce household energy bills and support the phasing out of fossil fuel heating as part of the UK's commitment to net zero by 2050.

Executive Member for Planning and Development, Cllr Simon Martin commented: “Fareham Borough Council has teamed up with City Energy to deliver this scheme, not only because helping to drive down household energy bills is a great thing to do for our residents, but also it also helps us reduce our environmental impact in the Borough.

“I would encourage any residents who meet the income criteria to fill in an application, as you could be able to get up to £10,000 of energy efficient home improvements completely free.”

More information on the scheme and how to apply can be found here: http://www.fareham.gov.uk/about_the_council/protecting_the_environment/climate_change/energysaving.aspx
