1. Introduction: Making Homes Warmer, Greener and More Affordable
The Warm Home Grant is one of the UK government’s flagship initiatives designed to tackle fuel poverty and reduce carbon emissions. With energy costs still high and climate targets looming, upgrading your home through funded retrofit measures has never been more important.
At Synergy Group, we help homeowners, landlords and local authorities across the UK secure grant funding and deliver compliant, high-quality installations that make homes warmer, greener and ready for Net Zero.
2. What Is the Warm Home Grant?
The Warm Home Grant provides fully or partially funded home improvements for households looking to improve their energy efficiency. It’s part of a national commitment to decarbonise homes while helping low-income families and private landlords reduce energy costs.
Funding is typically distributed via local authorities or energy providers and delivered by PAS 2035-certified installers like Synergy. Each project must meet strict quality and compliance standards under the TrustMark framework.
3. Who Is Eligible?
You may qualify for the Warm Home Grant if you meet the following criteria:
- Your property’s EPC rating is D, E, F or G.
- Your household income is under £36,000 or you receive qualifying benefits (Universal Credit, Pension Credit, etc.).
- You are a homeowner or private tenant with landlord consent.
Local authorities may also extend eligibility through LA Flex routes for residents who fall outside standard thresholds but live in energy-inefficient homes.
4. What Upgrades Can Be Funded?
The Warm Home Grant supports a wide range of energy-saving and renewable measures including:
- External or internal wall insulation
- Loft and underfloor insulation
- Solar PV systems to generate renewable electricity
- Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs) for low-carbon heating
- Heating controls and smart thermostats
- Draught-proofing and ventilation upgrades
Each property receives a whole-house retrofit assessment, ensuring all improvements are designed to work together and achieve measurable results.
5. Step-by-Step: How to Apply
