Lower-income householders across Devon can apply for free energy efficiency improvements to their homes worth thousands of pounds.

Householders can improve their homes by ensuring that they are warmer, less draughty, and less damp. Improvements will also reduce energy bills and lower the home’s carbon emissions.  

The grant scheme is being delivered by the Cosy Devon partnership: www.cosydevon.com

It is available to Devon residents who have an annual combined household income of less than £30,000 and whose homes have an Energy Performance Certificate rating of E, F or G.
