Green Living Grant Scheme open for applications

Sat, 02 Oct 2021


Applications have opened for the Green Living Grant Scheme.

The Scheme has been created to assist Island residents with the reduction of carbon emissions and household energy bills, and provides financial assistance, up to a maximum of £6,000, to help make residential properties more energy efficient.

The Scheme operates in two parts, the first provides a Manx Home Energy Audit, and the second provides funding of up to 50% towards the cost of energy saving solutions identified by the Manx Home Energy Audit.

The Manx Home Energy Audits will be based on the UK Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), and will provide an overall energy rating and a list of energy saving solutions in priority order for each property.

To qualify for funding towards improvement works, home owners, landlords (up to six properties) and tenants must be in receipt of this certificate, have a gross household annual income of below £112k (before tax allowances), and have received an asset rating of ‘D’ or lower for their property.

Once the improvement works have been completed, a second Manx Home Energy Audit will be completed to measure the improvements made and to recertify the energy rating of the property.
