Households across the UK can still apply for money to help them fit new boilers, double glazing and insulation, after it was revealed that funding would be extended.
It is the second lot of cash offered as part of the government scheme, after applications for the first £120million were scooped up earlier this year.

In July the Government announced that, due to overwhelming popular demand, the Green Deal Home Improvement Fund would be closed for applications with immediate effect. A statement said: "A surge in applications over the last two days means the allocated budget has now been reached."

However, a further £100m has now been made available. Further details including terms and conditions, rates and all measures to be covered will be announced next month.

The Green Deal Home Improvement Fund was set up to help households in England and Wales improve the energy efficiency of their homes. It allows households to claim up to £7,600 for improvements to their home on things such as a new boiler, double glazing and insulation
