Navigating funding applications and compliance requirements can be complex, but we make it seamless.
As experts in funding management, we provide comprehensive guidance on applications, reporting, and regulatory compliance, ensuring housing providers maximise available funding without the administrative burden. With extensive knowledge of project funding, we work with all major funding streams and maintain close relationships with clients, regional energy hubs, energy efficiency consortia, and nationwide framework providers.
Types of Funding Support
Grants for retrofit initiatives can come from various sources:
- The Warm Homes Plan (WHP)
- Optimised Retrofit (ORP)
- Environmental Responsibility
- The Warm Homes: Local Grant
The Warm Homes Plan (WHP)
The Warm Homes Plan (WHP) is a UK government initiative aimed at improving energy efficiency and reducing energy costs for households, particularly by modernising heating systems and lowering carbon emissions. The scheme is part of a broader effort to address fuel poverty, promote sustainable energy use, and support the UK’s commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
Under the WHP, eligible households can access financial support or grants to upgrade insulation, install energy-efficient heating systems, and adopt renewable energy solutions such as heat pumps and solar panels. The initiative targets low-income families, elderly residents, and individuals living in poorly insulated homes who are at higher risk of fuel poverty.
Optimised Retrofit (ORP)
The Optimised Retrofit Programme (ORP) is a key initiative in Wales aimed at decarbonising existing homes through a whole-house approach to energy efficiency. Unlike traditional one-size-fits-all solutions, ORP takes a data-driven, tailored approach, using advanced monitoring and assessment techniques to identify the most effective retrofit measures for each individual property. This ensures that improvements are not only cost-effective and sustainable but also deliver long-term benefits for residents.
Environmental Responsibility
At LivGreen, we understand that environmental sustainability is fundamental to creating lasting social value. Our commitment to protecting the environment is woven into every aspect of our operations, from procurement to project delivery. We prioritise the efficient use of resources to minimise waste, reduce our environmental footprint, and maximise value for our clients and the communities we serve.
The Warm Homes: Local Grant
The Warm Homes: Local Grant is a UK government initiative set to commence in 2025, aiming to enhance energy efficiency and provide low-carbon heating solutions for low-income households in England. Administered through local authorities, the scheme targets privately owned properties—both owner-occupied and privately rented—with Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) ratings between D and G.
Alleviate Fuel Poverty: By upgrading homes to higher energy efficiency standards, the grant seeks to reduce energy bills, thereby easing financial burdens on low-income families.
Support Environmental Goals: Implementing low-carbon heating systems and energy-saving measures contributes to the UK's commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
Compliance & Accreditations
At LivGreen, we have developed a market-leading, end-to-end PAS 2035 compliant retrofit solution designed to help clients achieve their net-zero carbon targets efficiently and effectively. By adhering strictly to PAS guidelines, we ensure that retrofit projects are carried out using a structured, risk-managed approach, guaranteeing compliance with the highest industry standards for energy efficiency and sustainability.
