To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, how many applications the Park Homes Warm Home Discount scheme has had in each of the last five years; and if he will increase capacity of that scheme in 2022-23.

The Park Homes Warm Home Discount scheme was set up by the Government and Charis Grants. The number of applicants for the scheme over the past five scheme years is as follows:
Scheme Year | Total Number of Applications |
2017/18 | 7,017 |
2018/19 | 7,892 |
2019/20 | 6,543 |
2020/21 | 4,048 |
2021/22 | 3,813 |
As the Park Homes Warm Home Discount scheme is funded voluntarily by energy suppliers through Warm Home Discount Industry Initiatives, the funding and therefore the application window can vary year on year.
