Changes to funding for solar PV/energy storage system and self-builders
From 6 June 2024 onwards, the Home Energy Scotland Grant and Loan Scheme will no longer provide new referrals of funding for solar PV and energy storage systems, including electric and heat batteries.
If you received a link to complete an application for the Home Energy Scotland Grant and Loan Scheme between 27 June 2023 and 6 June 2024, you can still apply for funding to install solar PV and energy storage systems until 31 July 2024. If you received a link after 6 June, you will not be able to apply for funding for these measures.
Any applications submitted before 6 June 2024 will continue to be processed as normal. Applicants with a funding agreement in place are unaffected by these changes.
If you are building your own home, you will no longer be able to submit an application to the Home Energy Scotland Grant and Loan Scheme, regardless of the types of measures, starting from 1 August 2024. Applications submitted prior to 1 August 2024 will be processed as normal.
