Earth Day 2022

Today (22 April) is Earth Day.

This year’s theme is Invest In Our Planet. It calls on all of us – governments, businesses, individuals and society at large – to work together to protect the future of our home: Planet Earth. You can help by looking at new ways to heat your home, travel and reduce consumption.

In the midst of the largest energy price increase in a decade it’s important to make energy saving switches not just to save the planet – but to reduce your own energy bills. Record global gas prices are driving this increase in costs: so investing in a more sustainable home is a great way to cut down your future bills.

Here are some of the ways you can invest in your home and Invest In Our Planet:

• Home Energy Scotland Loan for home improvements
• Private Rented Sector Loan for landlords
• Smart Export Guarantee for those that already have renewable energy systems

You can also Invest In Our Planet by considering new transport options:

• Electric vehicle loans
• eBike loan
• Domestic charge point funding
• Low Emission Zone support funding

The best way you can Invest In Our Planet is by reducing how much you consume. Take our Home Energy Check to find out how you can reduce your energy consumption and lower your bills at the same time.
