Watford Borough Council has been commended with a certificate of excellence at the London Energy Efficiency Awards 2022 for its home insulation initiative, the Carbon Community Assistance Scheme.
The Regional Council or Local Authority Body of the Year Award, sponsored by BaxterKelly, recognises the hard, continuous efforts of local authorities, and seeks to thank them for their service to their communities.
The commendation noted the council’s Carbon Community Assistance initiative, which provides grants and loans to Watford residents, helping to combat fuel poverty, while reducing carbon emissions and helping residents to save money on their energy bills.
The council says successful multi-million pound bids from the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) is resulting in many Watford properties receiving free insulation.
Together with Watford Borough Council’s assistance, there is a range of energy efficiency measures available to all homes that need upgrades, including cavity wall insulation, loft insulation, solar PV and more.
Some of the schemes are intended to benefit low-income households, while others are available to all households in the town.
