Energy Health Check

Energy health check

  1. How energy efficient is your home? If you’re a homeowner or a private tenant, we might be able to find ways to make your home more energy efficient and reduce the carbon footprint.
  2. How much energy are you using each year? Your energy bills will show you how much energy you’re using. We can help you to understand the information on your bills and help you to lower your energy use if it’s higher than average for your household.
  3. Are you eligible for an energy grant? Grant eligibility depends on the property, who owns it, and usually the income of the occupant – you don’t always need to be on benefits to be eligible for a grant.
  4. Does your home have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)? In order to be eligible for a grant, the EPC usually has to be D or below. If you are eligible for a grant, but your property doesn’t have an EPC then we may be able to complete a free home energy assessment and provide you with a valid EPC.
  5. Fairer Warmth. Use the Fairer Warmth app to check for energy grants and start an energy action plan. Register your property on the app to get started. If you need any help you can use the app to ask for one of our Energy Champions: Download Fairer Warmth.
