SCBF have made some changes to both the Home Heating Grant & the Energy Efficiency Grants.
Home Heating Grant
The £500 Home Heating Grant has been updated to reflect the changes in Net Household Income, which the Scottish Government has adjusted for 2023. This will increase the eligibility for a number of households.
The SCBF encourage eligible residents to apply, we have the funds available as provided by the various windfarm operators.
If you have questions on the form or require assistance with completing the form please contact the SCBF at cosec@strathnairncbf.com, or alternatively on 07858688355.
The updated form is available below.
Energy Efficiency Improvement Grant
The SCBF has also made changes to the Energy Efficiency Improvement Grant to now cover home energy retention. As a result more activities are covered. The grant now covers, up to a maximum of £500, the following:
- Installation of new or additional home insulation material
- Double or triple glazing installation to replace single glazing
- Double or triple glazing installation to replace existing double glazing in a home that is pre 2002
- Boiler replacement
- Replacement of non LED household lightbulbs (limited to £200)
There are some exceptions and that information can be found on the form.
