The Council is providing funding to Act on Energy to extend its range of services to offer free and impartial energy advice, signposting to a range of different grant schemes, energy debt advice and help understanding energy bills. Support is also available for those with cold related health conditions who may be eligible for boiler replacements, servicing and emergency heating provision.

And in a new approach aimed at householders who are able to invest in their home’s energy efficiency measures, specialist support and tailored advice is now available with Home Energy Help.

We know that many householders want to improve their home’s energy efficiency – to both lower bills and help fight climate change. But knowing where to start can seem like a maze.

Funded by Warwick District Council, Act on Energy has teamed up with Furbnow to provide a personalised, easy to read home energy plan with recommendations on which improvements can be made to your home, such as insulation or solar panels, and will then see your retrofit project through to completion working with accredited installers.

Councillor James Kennedy, Portfolio Holder for Climate Change, said: “Carbon emissions from homes not only impact our climate, but they also impact the household financially. There’s never been a more important time to save on your energy bills and ensure that your home is warm and safe, so I encourage you to see what help may be available for you.”
