… for all areas of West Dunbartonshire - in line with mandatory requirements from Scottish Government. After the initial LHEES for Clydebank, the Council will identify future areas based on their levels of fuel poverty and the level of requirement needed for energy efficiency and renewable energy interventions. The parameters/criteria of what is required will be identified based on the specific…
