The Council is a member of a consortium of local authorities that is led by the Greater South East Net Zero Hub and have received funding from the Government Home Upgrade (HUG) energy efficiency scheme. This funding is administered by the Net Zero Hub on behalf of the consortium and each authority has the option to enter into a funding agreement to receive capacity and capability funding to support the local promotion of the HUG scheme.
This decision is to enter into a grant funding agreement and receive £1,800 for this financial year and a further sum, yet to be determined, for 2024/25.
