Home Energy Advice Team (HEAT) Hub
The Home Energy Advice Team (HEAT) Hub project, funded by the Energy Redress Scheme, has been extended for a further two years following a successful pilot. This next phase responds to growing demand for trusted home energy advice and retrofit support across Nottinghamshire.
HEAT Hub was originally launched through the Local Energy Advice Demonstrator (LEAD) programme, one of 36 national projects delivering in-person energy advice to homeowners across Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire (D2N2).
NEP now lead HEAT Hub independently, focusing on helping Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire residents improve home energy efficiency. Our work prioritises hard-to-treat homes, including properties with low EPC ratings of E to G, homes off the gas grid, and those located in conservation areas.
We support homeowners at every stage of their retrofit journey, helping to reduce carbon emissions, lower energy bills, and improve comfort at home.
What does the HEAT Hub offer?
The HEAT Hub explores innovative approaches to providing in-person, home energy advice to consumer groups in the Midlands. The project aims to help improve the energy efficiency of properties by using the fabric-first approach to retrofitting, with the goal of ultimately moving towards alternative low-carbon energy solutions.
Our support includes workshops, webinars, and local events, alongside retrofit assessments and tailored, step-by-step Home Energy Plans. We can also refer you to trusted contractors and offer support with grants, such as the Boiler Upgrade scheme. This gives residents practical tools and expert guidance to make informed energy improvements.
