Hinckley & Rugby Building Society has partnered with Retrogreen, the green retrofit specialists, to help owners improve a property’s energy efficiency by covering the full cost of green retrofitting through a lower-rate green mortgage.
This service directly supports one of the key elements of the COP28 Agreement, announced today (13th December).
The resolution called on countries to double the annual rate of energy efficiency improvements by 2030.
Green retrofitting involves making changes that benefit both the property and the environment.
These changes were designed to improve energy efficiency, reduce carbon emissions, enhance comfort, improve the property’s Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating, and increase its value and desirability.
Colin Fyfe, CEO of Hinckley & Rugby, said: “We have forged this partnership to support and help drive the UK’s Green Agenda.
“Many people are aware of green retrofitting, and know that it could benefit them hugely, but don’t fully understand it.
“We aim to be with them all the way on the journey to a greener, more energy efficient home.”
Christopher Holmes, senior products manager at Hinckley & Rugby, said: “Green retrofitting is key to the energy efficiency of our homes, and is an essential element of the UK’s commitments on climate change.
“We are both keen and primed to be at the forefront of driving this forward for the benefit of UK homeowners, and our planet.”
