Yes, The Home Energy Scotland Grant and Loan Scheme provides homeowners in Scotland a grant, interest free loan or a combination of both to install clean heating systems and energy efficiency measures.

For heating systems such as heat pumps, grant funding of up to £7,500 is available, with an additional £7,500 of funding available as an optional interest free loan. An uplift of £1,500 is available for rural and island homes to both the heating and energy efficiency grants, meaning rural households can claim up to £16,500 in grant funding.
