Contact our team for more information about how we help charitable organisations and local authorities.
Since the Energy Redress Scheme launched in 2018, Energy Saving Trust has awarded over £21 million to fund 130 charities across England, Scotland and Wales. These grants have enabled charities to deliver projects that help energy consumers in vulnerable situations to save energy and money in their homes and to live warmer, more comfortable lives. Over 59,000 households have been helped by the Energy Redress Scheme so far.
To find out more about the projects we have funded, we have a full list beneath the map, or you can visit our announcements page.
You can also find specific case studies of some of the funded projects here.
