Get ready to become a Green Home Grant Supplier

The new Green Homes Grant will give over 600,000 homeowners in England up to £10,000 to install insulation, heat pumps, draft proofing and more to help households cut energy bills.

Tradespeople must register for TrustMark or Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) accreditation to take part in the scheme, which will cover green home improvements ranging from insulation of walls, floors and roofs, to the installation of low-carbon heating, like heat pumps or solar thermal – measures that could help families save up to £600 a year on their energy bills.

The government is setting out further details of the range of measures included and how consumers in England will be able to claim the new vouchers, which are worth up to £5,000 for homeowners. 

But as a supplier of these energy reduction technologies:

• Are you ready to supply homeowners?
• Are you Trust Mark or MCS accredited?
• Do you understand the differences between the two?
• Do you need support in achieving either accreditations?
