Installation of energy saving measures has continued throughout 2021 as part of the Green Homes Grant, despite the scheme closing to new applications in March.
British heat battery start-up Caldera has secured a £470,000 grant from the Department of Business Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) to help it rollout its Warmstone battery to 12 pilot homes.
The Mayor of London is committing £51 million through the Warmer Homes scheme for the rollout of energy efficiency technologies including insulation, ventilation and heat pumps across the capital.
The rollout of heat pumps, the number of electric vehicle (EV) chargepoints and renewable generation have all been identified as key issues for meeting the challenges posed by climate change.
