Nottingham Energy Partnership The Home Energy Advice Team Hub
Funded Project: Description
The project aims to establish in-person energy efficiency advice services for self-funding homeowners across Nottinghamshire and address the barriers to retrofit of hard-to treat properties.
The advice service will provide support for consumers for each stage of their retrofit journey, from an initial enquiry about how to improve the energy efficiency of their homes through to the point where installation of retrofit measures takes place. Alongside helping consumers to find grant funding and subsidies where available.
The project will deliver in-person tools to enhance consumer knowledge and confidence, including retrofit surveys, workshops and events, to help homeowners transition to net zero.
Retrofit surveys will include the following range of tailored personalised reports:
- Future Fit Home Energy Plan
- Clean Heat and Power Plan
- Thermal imaging report (e.g, to check the effectiveness of older cavity wall installations)
The project will focus on off-gas grid homes, properties in a conservation area, and homes with an EPC rating of D-G. Engagement will be with householders that can afford to invest, incentivising and enabling a greater volume of people to contribute to net zero.
