Community assets in the Hatton area are invited to express an interest in a new pilot energy efficiency scheme.
Volunteers that run community centres and village halls in the Hatton area have the opportunity to apply for upgrade works to make their facilities more energy efficient and cheaper to run.
National Grid has made funding available to East Lindsey District Council to help support important buildings which are seen as at the heart of communities.
The £162,500 funding is part of National Grid's social and community commitments as part of recent upgrade works at the Hatton Gas Compressor Station. It is to help support a project that will provide a legacy to the local area.
We are using the funding to support energy efficiency improvements to community buildings within a designated area close to Hatton, as well as upskilling officers and local volunteers to act as Community Energy Champions.
Community assets must fall within the geographical area around Hatton Gas Compressor Station as outlined in the Eligibility area for Hatton map in the related contents section below. Eligibility will be subject to an initial scoring criteria and full assessment.
Groups that meet the initial scoring criteria will have a full assessment undertaken by a Specialist Energy Assessor to determine the needs of their building and potential areas for improvement. They will then be invited to further apply for a share of funding available for capital works and will be fully supported from start to finish as works are undertaken.
