Home Upgrade Grant

Government Funding is now available for free energy improvements to make homes warmer and reduce energy bills for eligible households in Worcestershire. The Home Upgrade Grant scheme (HUG2) is designed to help improve the comfort and energy efficiency of lower income homes that are not heated by mains gas central heating. The scheme offers several other benefits, including reducing a home’s carbon footprint and energy bills, with no cost to the resident.

Worcestershire County Council is working with Wychavon District Council and local energy charity Act on Energy who will be supporting householders with the eligibility assessment and application process.

You may be eligible for the Home Upgrade Grant if you meet all the following:

  • Your property is not connected to the mains gas network for heating
  • Your household income is £31,000 or less
  • You own the home you live in or are a tenant in the private rented sector
  • Your home has an Energy Performance Certificate rating D or below You can check online at www.epcregister.com

If you qualify for the scheme, your property will undergo a survey to see which measures would improve its energy efficiency the most.
