A new program helps homeowners save on energy costs while making their homes more efficient and eco-friendly
The Stroud District Council has teamed up with other councils in Gloucestershire to kick off this exciting project. They’ve partnered with Furbnow, a company focused on energy efficiency, to help residents improve their homes and cut down on carbon emissions.
What’s cool about this service is that it simplifies the whole process of making energy-efficient upgrades. Homeowners can expect professional surveys, tailored advice, and access to trusted installers. It’s like having a personal guide through the maze of home improvements.
Councillor Chloe Turner mentioned how proud they are to push this initiative forward. It’s all about making homes more energy-efficient and supporting the environment. Plus, it’s a great way for residents to get the help they need to save money and energy.
Councillor Mike McKeown added that this partnership is a game-changer. It’s not just about saving money; it’s also about creating local jobs and supporting businesses in the area. Together, they’re aiming for a greener future.
Furbnow’s CEO, Becky Lane, pointed out that many homeowners want to make their homes more efficient but often feel overwhelmed. This partnership makes it easier by providing expert guidance and trusted installers, making the whole process stress-free.
Typical improvements include energy-efficient windows, heat pumps, and solar panels. These upgrades not only help keep homes comfortable but also reduce energy use and carbon emissions.
The initiative is a big step towards a more sustainable Gloucestershire. Residents can access the service through their local council or directly from Furbnow. For more details, check out Furbnow.com.
