GOVERNMENT FUNDING AT K SYSTEMS
At K Systems we are committed to supporting the improvement in people’s lives that External Wall Insulation (EWI) can offer, whether the funding is aimed at reducing fuel poverty, improving home energy efficiency to support achieving regional decarbonisation targets, or to improve the fire safety of medium and high-rise buildings.
K Systems not only has one of the widest ranges of independently certified EWI system offerings available, but also the experience of working with landlords, specifiers, architects and installers to specify, detail and supply the most suitable system for your project and maximise the benefit to the occupants while minimising disruption.
Our experience of specifying EWI systems extends to traditional masonry, steel framed and timber framed builds as well as to non-traditional building types. Whether they are low or high-rise, we can offer the system, expertise and support during design and on-site to ensure a successful project outcome.
Decarbonisation and fuel poverty funding
K Systems is already highly active and experienced in supporting the many funding schemes aimed at reducing carbon emissions and tackling fuel poverty, including;
- Energy Company Obligations (ECO) – a £1bn fund per year aiming to reduce fuel poverty and reduce energy usage.
- Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF) – a phased funding scheme which has so far had £0.8bn committed up to 2025.
- Sustainable Warmth / Home Upgrade Grant (HUG) – a £0.95bn commitment for improving off-gas grid and local authority homes.
- Home Energy Efficiency Programmes for Scotland (HEEPS) – an annual commitment by the Scottish Government, which primarily follows a fabric-first approach to home upgrades with the majority of funding supporting EWI installation.
K Systems offer CPDs, which focus on the range of EWI systems we offer or on the PAS 2030 & PAS 2035 quality standards required by many of these funding schemes.
