The loan can be used for a range of energy efficiency measures, including:
- Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems
- Solar battery storage
- Solar thermal systems
- Ground source heat pumps
- Air source heat pumps
- Double and triple glazed windows and doors
- Loft, wall and floor insulation
- Ventilation systems when installed alongside insulation measures
Installing energy efficiency improvements can help homeowners reduce their energy bills and create warmer, more comfortable homes.
A well-insulated and energy-efficient property can also have positive benefits for residents' health and wellbeing, particularly during colder winter months.
Councillor Morgan Brobyn, Suffolk County Council’s Cabinet Member for Food, Waste and Rural Affairs, said:
“We’re keen to help Suffolk residents make their homes more energy efficient and save money on their bills.
“We’re pleased to be partnering with Lendology again, who have considerable experience working with councils across the country to deliver projects like this for residents.
“With Lendology, Suffolk County Council is offering the lowest APR on this kind of loan amongst local authorities across the country.”
Emma Lower, Lendology CIC’s CEO, said:
“We're delighted to be working with Suffolk County Council to open the Suffolk Warm Homes Loan scheme, creating another route for homeowners to access new funding for essential home improvements.
“Strong local partnerships like this help more people improve their homes, while supporting the long-term resilience of communities across Suffolk.”
