The Government is investing £6.6 billion over this Parliament on clean heat and improving energy efficiency in buildings, through schemes including the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund and Home Upgrade Grant. Additionally, this summer we will launch the £1bn Great British Insulation Scheme.
The Industrial Energy Transformation Fund offers a total of £500m of grant funding to help businesses to reduce energy bills and emissions. A further phase of the scheme was announced in March.
Government has committed a further £6bn of funding for energy efficiency and low carbon heating from 2025 to 2028.
