Welcome
Thank you for joining the Green Homes Network. This webpage is your one-stop-shop to keep you updated on network activities and help you make the most of your membership.
As Scotland takes world-leading strides to become a net-zero society, the network plays a vital role. Homeowners and landlords will be inspired and will benefit from learning about your first-hand experience of installing and living with renewable technologies and energy efficient measures.
Home Energy Scotland is a free and impartial advice service funded by the Scottish Government and managed by Energy Saving Trust. The Green Homes Network forms part of its advice service offering, and its customers regularly use the case studies to get inspired. Home Energy Scotland supports Energy Saving Trust to raise awareness about the network and its advisors process any visit requests received through the site.
About our members
Our members make the network and we’re grateful to you all. Your willingness to share your experiences and inspire others is valued.

About your membership
Is your case study up to date? You can find your case study by using your postcode to search the network.
Have you made further improvements to your property, or installed another renewables system? Maybe you have updated data on your energy use or have some great photos you’d be proud to share? The more useful information your case study provides the more helpful your case study is to other homeowners considering installing renewables.
If your case study is out of date or you’d like to add some useful information, please get in touch and we can update it for you.
When you completed your network membership questionnaire, you decided if and how you wanted people to get in touch to find out more about your project.
When someone wants to find out more about your case study, they submit a request form on the website. We pass these requests on to a Home Energy Scotland advisor in your area. The advisor will liaise with you to arrange a suitable date and time to put them in touch.
If you change your mind about being available for enquiries, that’s ok – get in touch and we’ll update your records.
We’ll contact you each year to make sure we’ve got the right contact details for you. We’ll also check if you’re happy with your case study and your level of involvement.
However, if you ever need to update your contact details, or if you have any questions about the network or your case study, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
“It was great to speak to someone who changed from storage heaters to air source [heat pump]. I found out about the savings he is getting and how the system is working. It was a very useful conversation about his experiences and put my mind at rest that I am making the right decision.” Strathclyde and Central visitor
Spotlights on success
We’re grateful to all our network members as sharing your experiences is helping to inspire homeowners across Scotland to make positive changes.
Below are just some examples of the activities our members have taken part in recently.
Home Energy Scotland’s heat pump heroes campaign raises awareness of heat pumps in Scotland and features six of our network members. The campaign has previously featured in the Scottish Government’s Heat in Buildings Strategy and through its social channels and communications.
The network continues to be approached about content for publications and media outlets such as:
The Times
The Telegraph
Place Design Scotland
Grand Designs Magazine
Local Storytelling Exchange
Existing Homes Alliance.
In early 2026 two members took part in the Scottish Government’s Let’s Do Net Zero campaign to encourage the uptake of retrofit measures like heat pumps. They were interviewed by a celebrity interior designer and their stories were shared via social media.
In spring 2026, three of our members hosted photography shoots to improve Energy Saving Trust’s library of stock images.
Network members continue to support webinars hosted by Energy Saving Trust and Home Energy Scotland. In January 2026 Home Energy Scotland’s south west advice centre hosted webinars with two members about their experiences living with a heat pump. These were useful sessions for people living in rural areas.
In May 2026, a member hosted a visit with the Northern Ireland and Scottish Governments to share their story about installing and living with a heat pump, as well as their journey through the Scottish Government funding process. The visit provided the Northern Ireland Government with plenty of detail about how to deliver similar funding schemes in their own country.
Rewarding our members
We want to say a huge thank you to our members and reward them for their contributions. At the end of each year we try to send a small thank you gift to members who have gone above and beyond to support the network. So, it’s always worth getting involved!
Help us grow the network
Do you know a homeowner or landlord that would like to join the network?
Every month, we aim to promote the network by highlighting our newest case studies on Home Energy Scotland’s social media channels (if you consented to this on your joining questionnaire).
If you’re feeling social, you could mention us too! Tag Home Energy Scotland on Facebook or Twitter, or perhaps share your case study with your friends?
