Local Authorities

InstaGroup supports Local Authorities to tackle fuel poverty and reduce carbon emissions.

We support Council-backed energy efficiency projects and are currently delivering on the Government’s Warm Homes Plan. We are an end-to-end provider: we offer scheme and project management, have an extensive installer network, have our own PAS services.

InstaGroup has a dedicated retrofit coordination service. Our streamlined service includes qualified Retrofit Coordinators and Designers who can sign off designs, installations and drive quality through funding schemes.

We are also a materials system designer, providing top-quality renewable technology and materials that installers love to use, and can support with funding.

Together we can implement effective energy saving schemes that will support whole communities and improve quality of life for thousands of residents.

“Their team is efficient and their knowledge of the industry is invaluable. Customers regularly comment on the high quality of the installation and the level of service provided to them. When things inevitably do get difficult when dealing with so many customers, Insta are quick to offer their assistance in finding a resolve. Action Surrey would certainly recommend InstaGroup.”
Rebecca Venn, Action Surrey, MA for Surrey County Council

“It has been a real pleasure working with InstaGroup on our first project together, the team’s efficiency and communication has been excellent with any arising challenges resolved in a timely fashion. The works have been completed to high quality standards and with attention to detail; the team have been excellent and helped us streamline the process and deliver the best customer journey.”
Catarina Gibson, Mears, MA for South Cambridgeshire District Council

Our network

We have top notch in-house installers but, as a sustainable firm, we don’t want to increase emissions by sending our engineers across the country.  InstaGroup has a network of reputable installers across the UK so can source and manage industry approved contractors that are based close to your communities. This helps ensure good local knowledge, lower emissions per job and improves the local economy.

Wherever we can, we will select companies that are based within the Local Authority areas we’re working in.

Funding

We work closely with major Energy Companies to achieve their carbon reduction obligations. We can use funding sources from programmes like the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) to support a whole range of Local Authority schemes.

We work with Energy Companies and community organisations to provide specific funding sources for area-based initiatives that provide better subsidy rates and additional support for householders.

Social Value

At InstaGroup, we recognise that the true impact of our business extends beyond our high-quality service and delivery. Social value is an important part of our operation, and we are committed to creating lasting positive outcomes for the communities in which we work. Some of the key ways in which we demonstrate this are:

  • Local economy – we have an extensive network of installers so, if we aren’t local to you, we can find an installer who is. We also use locally sourced services such as scaffolding, skip hire, etc.
  • Community initiatives – InstaGroup has supported local voluntary organisations and donated staff time to support local charities
  • Sustainable products – our cradle and batten flooring is made from recycled materials
