Measure and Funding Confirmation

Eligibility for grant funding is based on criteria that allows us to help those in or most at risk of fuel poverty, this means you may be declined for funding based on your Council Tax band, SIMD ranking, or a range of other indicators. If you are declined for grant funding, you may still have the option to sign up on a self-funding basis to the project.

For the property where you live, please search for the address:

For the property where you wish to receive an energy efficiency measure, please search for the address using the postcode:

Please note: for properties which are Council Tax band D, you are unlikely to be eligible for grant funding without providing the information requested on the eligibility page.

Please note: for properties which are Council Tax band E-H, you are unlikely to be eligible for grant funding.

You should contact Home Energy Scotland

If you are applying for a property that is in Council Tax banding E – H, unfortunately it is highly unlikely you will be eligible for the funding.
