Coventry investing in improving energy efficiency of 150 homes
Coventry City Council is about to approve a £2.8 million grant aimed at enhancing the energy efficiency of 150 homes. The Homes Upgrade Grant is intended to retrofit low-income households and those with low Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) ratings lacking gas central heating in Coventry.
The council is seeking a strategic partner to provide investment, resources, and expertise for this initiative. This grant complements ongoing efforts to improve 2,500 homes in various areas. Councillors emphasise the importance of this project in aiding vulnerable residents, reducing carbon emissions, addressing climate change, and alleviating fuel poverty, while also urging government support for such initiatives amid the ongoing cost of living crisis.
