Local Authority Delivery Scheme available to help lower energy bills
We have successfully bid for funding to extend the Government’s Green Home Grant, Local Authority Delivery Scheme (LAD) scheme across West Sussex.
Residents can apply for this funding if:
- they have a household income of less than £30,000
- their home has a low energy efficiency rating (G, F, E or D rating)
Eligible residents in the Arun district could receive fully funded support of up to £10,000 for energy efficiency improvements in their homes. The funding can be used for a range of energy efficiency improvements and low carbon heating measures, including:
- Solid Wall Insulation
- Solar PV panels
- Low Carbon Heating
- Insulation if you live in a Park Home
- Smart Heating Controls and more!
As part of the Local Authority Delivery Scheme, private and social landlords will be able to access up to £5,000 with a one-third contribution.
Karl Roberts, Director of Place, Arun District Council said: “We are delighted to have been successful in securing this funding for those households in our district that most need support. Being able to afford household energy bills and make improvements which will have long-term, energy efficiency benefits is vital. This funding is time-limited so residents meeting the criteria shouldn’t delay in applying for the grant.”
