Thousands of Manchester homes are set to become more energy efficient as part of a round of upgrades.
The retrofitting is part of the city’s target to become net zero carbon by 2038, and will also improve the health of residents and reduce the cost of running the home. The plan, which will improve 2,100 properties, is set to be approved by council bosses today (July 12).
Of those 2,100, some 1,600 are council-owned properties at a cost of £50 million. Another 500 private low-income homeowners will be able to take advantage of a £10 million grant to invest in their houses.
