Green Homes Grant (Local Authority Delivery Phase 2)

 

The Committee noted the Green Homes Grant (Local Authority Delivery Phase 2) and of the proposal which had been submitted to upgrade the energy efficiency of dwellings in the Council owned stock.

 

The Green Homes Grant scheme aims to raise the energy efficiency of low-income and low EPC rated homes, including the worst quality off-gas grid homes, delivering progress towards reducing fuel poverty, the phasing out of high carbon fossil fuel heating and the UK's commitment to net zero by 2050. This accords with Broxtowe’s commitment to become carbon neutral by 2027.

 

RECOMMENDED that Finance and Resources Committee include an additional £724,850 in the 2021/22 capital programme for heating replacements and other energy efficiency works on the Council’s housing stock funded from the Green Homes Grant (LAD Phase 2).
