Energy Efficiency

Cheshire West and Chester is determined to improve the energy efficiency of housing in the area.

The National Indicator (NI 186) for energy efficiency has been identified as one of the priority indicators in the Local Area Agreement.

The draft financial assistance policy includes a number of schemes to help residents improve the energy efficiency of their homes. We are currently consulting with residents, partners and stakeholders on the details of this.

The Government also provides help through its Warm Front Scheme.

Warm Front makes homes warmer, healthier and more energy-efficient. The Warm Front Scheme provides a package of insulation and heating improvements up to the value of £3,500 

This scheme is available to owner occupiers and tenants renting privately in receipt of certain qualifying allowances or benefits. To contact the Warm Front Scheme please call 0800 316 2814.
