A £1.4m E.ON energy efficiency scheme is to install 314 Dudley Borough Council homes with energy saving measures.
Work has started on the first of the homes, which will receive measures such as solid wall and loft insulation, draught proofing and new ‘A' rated boilers and could save each home more than £600 a year on energy costs.
The work is being carried out in the Pensnett area under the government's Community Energy Saving Programme (CESP), under which more than £350m will be invested by energy companies in the next three years.
The scheme was created in September 2009 to give whole-house energy makeovers to 90,000 hard-to-treat homes across England, Wales and Scotland.
Jon Kirby, CESP Manager at E.ON, said: "We hope this is the first of a number of similar schemes we will be working on in the area. By tackling whole communities in such a way we can really start to make a difference and build energy efficiency into our everyday lives."
"And it's not just these homes benefiting from the investment; private homeowners can also take advantage of reduced rates on similar energy efficiency measures."
