Warm Homes Plan

Home Energy Grants for EPC Rating G Homes

Homes in your area with an EPC rating of G are the very lowest on the energy efficiency scale and the top priority for Warm Homes Plan funding. An EPC G home has the highest energy costs and typically the greatest need for improvement. Funded measures can include insulation, heat pumps, and other upgrades.

Frequently asked questions

Is my EPC G rated home eligible for grants in your area?

Yes. EPC G is the lowest energy efficiency rating, and these homes are the absolute top priority for Warm Homes Plan funding. If your your area property is rated G and your household receives a qualifying benefit, you are very likely to be eligible for a full package of funded improvements. Submit the form to confirm your eligibility.

What does an EPC rating of G mean?

An EPC rating of G means your home scores 20 or below on the energy efficiency scale. It indicates the poorest insulation, highest energy waste, and the highest heating costs of any EPC band. Most EPC G properties are older homes with no cavity walls, little or no loft insulation, and outdated heating systems.

What improvements could an EPC G home in your area receive?

EPC G homes typically need a comprehensive package of measures. This commonly includes solid or external wall insulation, loft insulation, heating system replacement (often a heat pump for off-gas-grid properties), and smart controls. A free survey will identify everything your property needs.

Can a landlord let an EPC G property?

No. Under the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES), landlords in England and Wales cannot legally let residential properties with an EPC below E without a registered exemption. EPC G properties cannot be let and must be improved. The Warm Homes Plan landlord route can fund the required work.

How much could the improvements cost me?

If your household qualifies under the Warm Homes Plan, the funded improvements may cost you nothing. For EPC G properties, the scheme can fund up to £30,000 of work. The installer will confirm the full scope and any potential cost to you in writing before any work begins.

Is the eligibility check free?

Yes. The form is free and takes about 60 seconds. If you pre-qualify, an accredited installer in your area will contact you to arrange a free home survey.
