Project Description:

This project will install clean heating to 35 properties in Cluny Court, Blairgowrie. The archetypes of the properties are varied, there are 6 terraced bungalows and 29 flats of varying size. The properties have previously benefited from Energy Efficiency measures such as double glazing, new external doors, cavity wall insulation and loft insulation where applicable.

This project will upgrade the existing inefficient storage heaters with new high heat retention Thermastore storage heaters with an improved user interface for improved user control. The flatted properties will also receive solar PV and battery storage.

The project aims to bring all properties to an EPC band B and will save the tenants and estimated £1000 per annum on energy bills.
