Grant Funding – Access to grant funding alongside loans for specific energy efficiency measures, reducing your out-of-pocket expenses.

Our Role In The Green Homes Wales Scheme

Phase 2 – Quotes and Installations

Cyd Innovations retrofit coordinators can help with the installation of measures identified in Phase 1, including assistance with submitting applications for funding following quotations from our coordinators. The scheme will then determine eligible funding.

It’s primarily an interest-free loan, not a grant — meaning the money does need to be paid back. However, because it carries zero interest over up to 10 years, it costs you nothing extra beyond what you borrow. Before any loan is issued, Cyd and the NEST service will also check whether you’re eligible for any outright grants first, so you borrow as little as possible.

Between £1,000 and £25,000, repaid over up to 10 years with zero interest. You also get a 6-month repayment holiday at the start, meaning your energy savings often kick in before you make your first repayment.

No. Unlike many energy schemes, Green Homes Wales does not means-test applicants. As long as you own and live in your home in Wales, pass a standard credit and affordability check, and the property meets the basic criteria, you can apply regardless of your income.

No. Cyd Innovation’s role as your Retrofit Coordinator is fully funded through the scheme. There is no cost to you for our assessment, guidance, or project management.
