Energy Efficient Scotland: Area Based Scheme
The Scottish Government has awarded funding to help us deliver energy efficiency programmes in the Highlands as part of the Energy Efficient Scotland: Area Based Scheme (EES:ABS).
The area based programmes aim to:

- Heat your property through an Air Source Heat Pump
- Offer solar PV and battery storage
Funding is available from the Scottish Government for the installation of measures.

An owner's contribution may be required to cover the remainder of the cost for installation.

Keeping you safe is important and we appreciate your continued patience. Regular communication will be issued to those who are in the process of receiving energy efficiency measures delivered under the scheme.
