The Government’s Green Homes Grant Scheme, due to open for applications…

… up to £10K. Energy is used by water companies to clean and supply drinking water and we use energy when we heat water. Changes to rainfall patterns suggest we will have less summer rainfall and should use water wisely. We will work with partners to promote water efciency so reducing water use and reducing water poverty. We will: Support partners to explore the potential for Combined Heat
