Barclays has extended its scheme to pay up to £2,000 to mortgage holders to help make their homes green as new research shows more than half of homeowners do not feel confident making their properties more energy efficient.
The bank launched a trial last year to pay back customers who install new insulation, heat pumps or solar panels among other energy efficiency solutions. It has now committed to extend the scheme for eligible mortgage customers.
It comes after a year of surging energy bills for cash-strapped households across the UK.
