Warm Homes: Local Grant solar support in England

Council-delivered improvements · England · subject to eligibility and funding. Check the current official route; directory records do not establish eligibility.

Current position

Council-delivered improvements · England · subject to eligibility and funding. Checked 23 September 2026.

Warm Homes: Local Grant can include solar panels following a council-arranged home survey. It applies to eligible privately owned homes in England, including privately rented homes, with EPC ratings D to G. Income, benefits or postcode eligibility and local funding availability matter. The council agrees, organises and pays for the work; landlords may need to contribute.

What to do next

Start through the official application service or your local council. Do not commission a private installation expecting reimbursement. The broader Warm Homes Plan is not itself a universal solar grant, and a historical Warm Homes directory badge does not establish participation in Local Grant delivery.
