Putting climate at the heart of our purpose
According to the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy, residential properties make up 16% of the UK total greenhouse gas emissions (UK Greenhouse gas emissions figures 2021). We want to help to lower this and reward customers who are trying to do the same.
Our ambition is for 50% of our mortgage base to have an EPC rating at or above C by 2030, to achieve alignment with the 2015 Paris Agreement.
