The Warm Homes Finance Plan is a government-backed initiative designed to make renewable energy upgrades more affordable.
Eligible homeowners can apply for finance towards:
Customers can access up to £15,000 finance per technology, meaning funding of up to £45,000 may be available when multiple technologies are installed. Where the cost of a system exceeds the funding limit, the customer simply contributes the difference.
*Finance is subject to status, affordability checks and lender approval.
Generate your own renewable electricity and reduce your reliance on energy suppliers. By installing solar panels, you can produce clean energy directly from your roof, helping to lower your electricity bills while giving you greater control over the energy you use. It's also an effective way to make the most of unused roof space and protect yourself against rising energy costs.
Battery storage allows you to store excess electricity generated by your solar panels and use it when it's most beneficial. Instead of exporting unused energy back to the grid, you can save it for the evening or periods of higher demand, helping to maximise your solar savings and reduce the amount of electricity you need to buy from your supplier.
Air source heat pumps are an efficient, low-carbon alternative to traditional gas, oil and LPG heating systems. They extract heat from the outside air to provide heating and hot water for your home, helping to lower carbon emissions while offering a modern, future-ready heating solution that can improve your home's long-term energy efficiency.
Eligible customers can apply for:
✅ Up to £15,000 for Solar Panels
✅ Up to £15,000 for Battery Storage
✅ Up to £15,000 for Air Source Heat Pumps
Customers installing multiple technologies could access up to £45,000 total funding.*
If the installation cost exceeds the available finance limit, the remaining balance can be paid directly by the customer.
*Finance is subject to eligibility, affordability and lender approval.
Spread the cost of renewable energy technology rather than paying for everything upfront.
Purpose-built finance designed specifically for renewable energy improvements.
Generate and store your own energy while improving your home's overall efficiency.
Invest in technologies that support the UK's transition towards cleaner, lower-carbon energy.
Customers may be able to make additional payments to reduce their loan term and pay off their finance sooner.
You may be eligible if:
✓ You own the property where the installation is taking place
✓ You are interested in Solar Panels, Battery Storage or an Air Source Heat Pump
✓ You meet affordability and lender approval requirements
✓ You are not receiving alternative government funding for the same technology
