A partnership approach

The programme brought together all 17 councils in the East Midlands, each delivering retrofit projects tailored to their local areas.

The project’s success demonstrates the power of local collaboration, flexible funding, and devolved decision-making — putting communities at the heart of the region’s journey to net zero.
