Energy Action Scotland EAS – Park Homes Scotland Support 2025/27
Funded Project: Description
This is a partnership project between Energy Action Scotland and the Scottish Confederation of Park Home Residents Associations to support over 1,100 elderly and vulnerable residents living in park homes across Scotland. These residents frequently face extreme fuel poverty, as they are unable to access competitive utility tariffs.
This project will train an energy advisor to City & Guilds Level 3, enabling them to provide trusted, in-depth energy advice directly to residents. The advisor will assess home energy efficiency, recommend improvements, and support residents in accessing benefits and income maximisation opportunities. They will also explore the provision of white goods (via CHARIS), automatic heating controls, and replacement heating systems through council and government schemes.
The project aims to deliver measurable improvements in energy efficiency and financial wellbeing for some of Scotland’s most at-risk households.
