Description
We fund studies to support the integration of leading-edge deep energy efficiency measures and onsite renewable energy generation in existing affordable housing retrofit and new build projects.

Housing providers can use a study grant to assess the approaches needed to implement an eligible pilot or capital project in detail, including: technical evaluations and energy models; financial options analysis; site assessments; stakeholder engagement; detailed project planning. These approaches must demonstrate and validate the project’s environmental, social and economic benefits, in line with GMF’s environmental thresholds for Sustainable Affordable Housing (SAH) initiative capital projects.
