INSULATION SCHEME TO PAY OFF IN 100 YEARS

Insulation was installed in 14 homes in Yorkshire, at a cost of up to £44,000 per house, for the research conducted by Leeds Beckett University for the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ). The government-backed study showed that it could take more than a century before the cost was repaid in reduced energy bills.

The Government is expected to unveil new plans to fund retrofits in poorer homes, as well as schools and other public buildings, within weeks, as part of Labour’s manifesto pledge to upgrade five million homes to cut bills for families. But will they notice any difference?
