Discover our advice hub

Scotland’s long heating season and rising energy costs make it more important than ever to take control of your home’s energy use. Whether you’re looking to make your home warmer, cut bills or invest in renewable technologies, our online advice hub is here to help.

What is the Home Energy Scotland advice hub?

Our advice hub - which is free to use - features a range of tools to help you start your energy saving journey by giving you advice, all tailored to you. 

You can:

• take a home energy check to find out what energy saving improvements might be suitable for your home
• find out what funding is available in your area, including grants and loans from the Scottish Government
• check whether you could be eligible for Warmer Homes Scotland, if you’re struggling to heat your home.

How to use the advice hub

It’s easy to get started. You can use the advice hub as a guest, but for the best experience, we recommend creating an account so that you can save your energy saving recommendations for later. The advice hub is free to use.

If you used our advice hub before we made technical improvements to it in January 2025, your previous log in details won’t work and you’ll need to create a new account. We contacted everyone that had previously registered to tell them this at the time, and we securely deleted all old account details.

Help us keep improving our online advice

We hope you’ll enjoy using the new advice hub. If you have any feedback or issues using it, please contact us to let us know.
