If you are considering improving your home’s insulation or heating you may be eligible for the Energy Assistance Package. The Energy Assistance Package is designed to help people in Scotland in making their home warmer and more energy efficient. There are similar schemes in England , Northern Ireland and Wales; click through to the relevant page for more details.
The Energy Assistance Package is aimed at people who are in receipt of income-based benefits and the over 60s. Everyone is eligible, however, for free energy efficiency advice and, when applicable, a benefit and tax credit check to ensure access to the lowest cost energy tariffs. Homeowners or private tenants in receipt of certain benefits, those over 75 or those over 70 with no central heating may also be eligible for free home insulation. In addition, the Energy Assistance Package offers free central heating systems and other energy efficiency measures to eligible private tenants or homeowners who are over 60 or in receipt of certain benefits.
The Energy Assistance Package is managed by the Energy Saving Trust and more information, including details of the eligible benefits, can be found on their website.
