    Green Homes Grants available for low-income Mendip residents

    Endorsed by Mendip District Council, under the Green Homes Grants Scheme, owner-occupiers will benefit from energy efficiency installations up to the value of £10,000 with nothing for them to pay towards the costs of works. 
    Tenants of rented properties can also access grants of up to £5,000 for energy efficiency upgrades, but the landlord will be expected to contribute at least one third towards the cost of works.


    To be eligible for the grants, the residents of the property must have a low income (receive benefits or have the household income below £30,000 per annum) and the EPC for the property must be rated D, E, F or G. If there is no EPC for your property, you can still apply, and it doesn't matter who your energy supplier is. 


    To find out if your property has an EPC see:
    find-energy-certificate.digital.communities.gov.uk/
    You can submit an application at the following website: www.heatsomerset.co.uk/ The scheme runs until March 2022, operating on a first-come, first-served basis.
