Southend Council has secured £3.47 million from the Government's Warm Homes: Social Housing Fund for significant heating upgrades on the Balmoral estate. The project, which will install ground source heat pump systems to enhance energy efficiency and reduce costs for residents, is set to begin later this year, with Kensa appointed as the principal contractor. These upgrades aim to support the city's climate commitments and provide stable long-term energy solutions for residents.
