The Welsh Government Warm Homes Nest scheme will come to an end at the end of March 2024, with a new scheme replacing it on Monday 1 April 2024. The new scheme will have a greater focus on low carbon technologies for the home where it makes sense to do so, to support Welsh Government’s ambition to make Wales net zero by 2050. Under the new scheme, the best energy efficient solution will be delivered through insulation, low carbon heating and renewable technologies.

Nest will continue to provide advice to customers on saving energy and money and will remain open from Monday – Friday 9am – 6pm until the end of March 2024. Customers will also be able to express their interest in the new scheme through the Nest advice service and discuss other energy efficiency and low carbon grant schemes which are available.

To maximise delivery of applications in progress by the end of March 2024, they are not taking new applications except for eligible vulnerable customers with no heating or hot water at the property.

Customers who express an interest in the new scheme will be contacted as soon as possible following the new scheme launch.

Vulnerable households are households where the occupants include one or more of the following:

•    a person aged 60 and over, 
•    a dependent child or children under the age of 16, 
•    a single person aged under 25,  
•    a person living with a long term illness or who is disabled

The address to return materials: Energy Saving Trust, 33 Cathedral Road, Cardiff CF11 9HB.
