A renewable heating scheme has awarded households in 38 communities a share of £3 million to install renewable heating kits such as solar water heating, water pumps and biomass boilers.
Around 1,250 homes will be able to install the kit as part of the government’s Renewable Heat Premium Payment scheme.
The initiative, administered by the Energy Saving Trust, has been designed to initiate new projects and build on renewable heating schemes already in place, serving to save money on bills and provide low carbon heating alternatives to cut emissions.
Energy minister, Greg Barker said: “We need to transform the way we heat our homes to help keep bills down and cut carbon too. Community groups, with their enthusiasm, local knowledge and drive, need to be at the very heart of this revolution so it’s great to see so many groups across Great Britain getting on board.
