Can we get subsidised insulation?
Yes, we can offer subsidies in most cases, even bigger where lofts have no existing insulation. Householders on certain benefits can even have free installation. Why? Because the UK Government is obliged to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2010 as part of the Kyoto Protocol. One of the easiest ways to achieve a large reduction in greenhouse gas emissions is through increased home energy efficiency. The Government has stated that cavity wall insulation and loft insulation are the most effective methods which is why they have legislated for power/energy utilities and power companies to provide subsidies.
