EON Green Homes Grant

It's listed that they can improve insulation in roofs, walls, floors and even add external insulation and that as long as the work comes to less than £10,000 there will be nothing to pay.

Has anyone had any experience with this?

    How does the Green Homes Grant work?

    Local authorities in England can bid for funding to help homes in their area pay for energy efficiency measures through the Local Authority Delivery scheme. They can then select partners to deliver the home improvements grants on their behalf.  

    Initially, the Green Homes Grant scheme was split into two areas; one where eligible households can apply for free funding through their local authority, and a second part where customers who didn't meet the eligibility criteria could receive a voucher to cover up to two-thirds of the cost of the improvements, however this part has recently been stopped.

    Since the beginning of the scheme we have only worked in partnership with local authorities to provide free energy efficiency upgrades and have not dealt with the voucher element of the scheme.

    The scrapped part is the one where homeowners applied direct, but the Local Authority Delivery (LAD) part is still running. There are occasional posts on the main Energy forum about it.
    I think (please do check) you need to be in receipt of certain means-tested benefits and have a poor EPC.

    It's the LAD part, it only just came to my attention from our councils website.

    I have filled the form out, if I don't meet the criteria then so be it  :)
