£100K cash injection for energy efficiency scheme

4,500 homes benefit from cost-saving kit

A further £100,000 has been allocated to enable households to access government's Energy Efficiency Scheme.

Nearly 4,500 homes have already benefited from the initiative since its launch in 2022.

Around £1.7 million of home improvements have been delivered to date.

Eligible residents can receive up to £820 worth of free kit, including loft insulation, LED lightbulbs and smart heating controls.

An additional £525 is available towards installation costs for eligible groups.

Renters and social housing tenants can also apply.

Environment, Food and Agriculture Minister Clare Barber said: "Improving the energy efficiency of our homes is one of the most practical steps we can take to help residents manage rising energy costs while also playing our part in meeting the Island's net zero commitments.

"I'd encourage anyone who hasn't yet applied to check their eligibility."

She spoke to Simon Richardson:
