In 2007, a new approach to creating warmer, more fuel efficient and sustainable communities was developed.  By bringing in extra funding, the Energy Agency was able to offer all households, in a selected geographical community, free loft and cavity wall insulation, regardless of house type and ownership.

The same holistic model is being applied in other rural and urban communities with different funding sources. All available funding sources are combined such as government initiatives, utility funding and benevolent charities, to obtain maximum benefit. This is an extremely successful way to achieve carbon reductions and promote sustainability in communities.
