Update, 29 October 2026: This project has finished, and the Green Homes Grant and Renewable Heat Incentive mentioned below have both closed. If your home is heated by oil or LPG and is not on mains gas, you can now get £9,000 off an air source or ground source heat pump through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme if your installer applies by 31 March 2027, and you no longer need an EPC to apply. See our grants page or come to our free drop-in on the third Saturday of the month.

If you have ever thought about heating your home with renewable energy, there has never been a better time to make this happen.
There is currently a government grant and subsidy available for everyone and Forest Row Energy can offer you free support if you currently heat your home with oil.
If you live within 15 miles of Forest Row and heat your home with oil, Forest Row Energy has a few spaces still available to help you navigate the complexities of installing renewable heating. You could get a free home assessment, technical and financial analysis that will show you your best options and the savings you could make.
Forest Row Energy will help households that are part of their programme to access the Green Homes Grant and Renewable Heat Incentive subsidy from the government to help pay for installing technologies such as heat pumps. We are also developing a not-for profit funding initiative to further reduce your installation costs.
Installing low carbon heating offers great cost savings and is a must if we are going to meet our national carbon reduction targets. The support through Forest Row Energy will make installing renewable heat for your home as easy and cost effective as possible. All the support is free of charge and is offered on a no obligation basis.
