2020-07-28

Origin Housing secured through THFC loans of £20million from EIB and £4million from the JESSICA funding scheme, to support the development of new sustainable homes and green improvements to existing stock.

  • Solid wall insulation works in a number of homes
  • Boiler replacements over a number of years

Thanks to the funding, 56 homes saw improvements to thermal performance due to the adding of external and internal solid wall insulation, plus two housing blocks (approx.. 50 units). Carbon emissions savings over the projects totally 73 tCO2/annum.

£3,704,000 was invested in the installation of condensing boilers in over 1,400 homes, leading to an improvement in SAP ratings and carbon emissions savings of 375 tCO2/annum.
