The council has the opportunity to draw down on potentially £22m of domestic energy efficiency improvements for private sector residents through the Warm Homes Local Grant scheme between April 2025 and March 2028 as a result of a Expression of Interest submitted in November 2024.
In order to do this, the council is required to sign a Memorandum of Understanding with the Department of Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ). The exact amount of funding available will be confirmed when the MOU is issued.
This is a key decision due to the amount of funding potentially available.
