Community Energy Plus Warmer Tenants Advice Service
Funded Project: Description
The Warmer Tenants Advice Service aims to reduce fuel poverty for vulnerable tenants by addressing the issue at source – by targeting small private sector landlords and working with them alongside their tenants to improve the energy efficiency of poorly performing homes.The project will target let properties with an EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) rating of E to G, raising awareness of Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards and Housing Health & Safety Rating Systems. Through telephone advice and site visits, a Domestic Energy Assessor will support landlords and tenants to raise the quality of their properties by; understanding their EPC rating, identifying cost effective, low carbon improvements and securing any funding available to make the improvements.
