Homeowners to receive vouchers of up to £5,000 for home insulation

The vouchers are part of a £2 billion Green Homes Grant scheme in England which form part of a broader, £3 billion investment plan to crack down on carbon emissions and help the UK get on track to reach its climate change goals.

According to Sunak, the scheme will also help to “kick-start” the economy following the Covid-19 pandemic and will branch out to providing new insulation in public builds such as schools and hospitals. Low-carbon heating systems will also be provided in social housing settlements.
