Schemes

Making your home warmer, more comfortable and cheaper to run doesn’t have to be out of reach. There are a number of government-backed and locally delivered funding schemes available to help households in West Yorkshire pay for energy-saving improvements.

Each scheme has its own rules about who qualifies which may be based on your income, the type of property you live in, its current energy efficiency rating and your local authority area. 

Home Energy West Yorkshire provides free, impartial guidance to help you work out which schemes you might be eligible for and how to apply. Funding availability can change over time, so we’ll keep this page updated with the latest opportunities.
