Sustainable Warmth Scheme

What is the Sustainable Warmth scheme with Newcastle City Council? 

Newcastle City Council has contracted Warmworks to deliver energy efficiency improvements to local homes under a project which is known as the Sustainable Warmth scheme.  

The Sustainable Warmth scheme aims to help people in Newcastle who live in energy inefficient properties, and who may be struggling with high energy bills, with the goal of making their home more affordable to heat.   

The project is part of a long-term partnership between Newcastle City Council and Warmworks, which is built upon Newcastle City Council’s ambitions for tackling fuel poverty and delivering on its plan to achieve net zero.
