Islanders could get grants and loans to upgrade to cleaner home heating

Дата публикации: 05-08-2026 13:20:00

Households in the Isle of Man could receive grants and interest-free credit to switch to cleaner heating under a new scheme proposed to Tynwald for approval this July.
The Heat Wise Home scheme, put forward by the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture (DEFA) working with Manx Utilities, would help homes transition to air source heat pumps, with additional support available for insulation, draught proofing, window upgrades and ventilation improvements to make homes more efficient.
Under proposals, lower-income households would receive full grant support. Middle-income households would receive a combination of grants and interest-free credit via a hire purchase.
Full-support households would be eligible for:
Up to £16,000 as a full grant towards a heat pump
Up to £7,000 as a full grant towards other eligible measures
Partial-support households would be eligible for:
An £8,000 grant plus an £8,000 interest-free credit towards a heat pump
50% of costs, up to £7,000, towards other eligible measures
The scheme builds on earlier Government schemes including the Green Living Grant Scheme and Energy Efficiency Scheme, which have helped thousands of people and draws on the Manx Utilities Heat Pump Trial, which has seen more than 150 installations with high levels of customer satisfaction.
Funding focuses on measures delivering the greatest long-term carbon savings and is planned to run until April 2029.
Clare Barber MHK, Minister for the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture, said:
'The proposed Heat Wise Home scheme would help residents across the Island live in warmer, healthier homes while spending less on energy. Subject to Tynwald approval, it will deliver targeted support that improves lives and helps future-proof our homes and communities.'
The proposal has been published on the Tynwald Register of Business.
