The ENERGYWISE™ grants that we offer are to help insulate private houses, and install clean and efficient heating under the government's Warm Up New Zealand: Heat Smart programme.
Under the programme, 188,500 homes across New Zealand will become easier and cheaper to heat - and warmer, healthier and drier as a result. The government has committed to spending $347 million over the next four years on the programme.
