“Green finance will only succeed if consumers benefit from clear advice and strong protections. People must be confident that green home upgrades cut bills, will be completed to a high standard and fixed if they go wrong. Citizens Advice is excited to champion consumers in this partnership. Building this trust will help grow demand and enable the Government to achieve their ambitions for the Warm Homes Plan.”

“Delivering on the ambitions of the Warm Homes Plan will require collaboration across industry, from lenders like us through to energy providers, civil society and government. I’m therefore pleased to be joining this partnership, which creates the cross-industry network we need to make warmer, more energy efficient homes both affordable and practical.”

“I’m pleased to be part of this important partnership following the publication of the Warm Homes Plan last week. Delivering upgrades to five million homes will require a range of attractive, green finance options to reduce upfront costs and encourage people to take action in their homes. Energy Saving Trust is ready to put our expertise to work so more people can benefit from warmer, more affordable homes.”

“Supporting more households to access low-carbon technologies like heat pumps, solar panels, and batteries relies on unlocking billions of pounds of investment by scaling up green home finance. We look forward to working with DESNZ, GFI and businesses to ensure that effective consumer protections are in place to drive market expansion in a way that benefits households across the UK.”

“The FLA welcomes this Strategic Partnership with GFI and our role on its panel. It supports shared priorities on innovation, growth, and delivery of the Warm Homes Plan. I look forward to joining the Steering Group which will bring together differing pools of expertise, including access to finance, to ensure that the green proposition is compelling for households. The FLA is committed to work together with industry and government to decarbonise.”

“At HSBC UK we are committed to supporting our customers as the pace of the energy transition accelerates. We look forward to working as part of the new partnership to ensure that the green home finance market meets customers’ needs in the short and long term.”

“Nationwide is committed to supporting its customers to make their homes more energy efficient, but this is a challenge which can’t be tackled by one sector alone. We are pleased the Government is bringing together this strategic partnership to unite financial services providers, the energy sector and consumer groups to unlock the changes needed to make homes resilient for the future.”

“The effort to decarbonize the UK’s housing stock is one that requires both an industry-wide approach and innovative policymaking. As such, we are proud to take up a position as a steering partner on the Green Home Finance Strategic Partnership. Our customers are increasingly aware of the energy efficiency of their homes and the Government’s Warm Homes Plan has some ambitious and wide-ranging targets. We are committed to supporting all initiatives that aim to make green home upgrades as available and accessible to as many of our customers as possible.”

“Heat pumps, solar panels and batteries can cut consumer bills and carbon emissions, and with the launch of the Warm Homes Plan we’ve got a huge opportunity to help many more households take up these technologies. Affordable, accessible finance will be crucial to making this work, and the Green Homes Strategic Partnership will help turn this ambition into reality.”

“The financial services sector is committed to helping deliver a warmer, greener housing stock. This is an important issue for the UK, and I am really pleased to be part of the Steering Group of the Green Home Finance Strategic Partnership. As consumer demand increases, accessible and well-designed financial products will have a key role to play in enabling an inclusive and fair transition”.

"The scale of upgrades needed demands new thinking on finance. UKGBC is delighted to join this Strategic Partnership to help develop practical, householder-focused solutions that unlock private investment and make warm, low-carbon homes the easy choice. We look forward to continuing our leadership in this space, with previous campaigns on retrofit investment and stamp duty reform, and contributing ideas that turn ambition into delivery.”
