BUS uplift to 9k for off grid installs. I can't establish if new builds are specifically excluded.
Hi.
The BUS grant for new self builds is pretty straight forward - if it is a self build you are entitled to the full 7.5k BUS, even if you are not replacing a system but installing from new. The 9k uplift for off grid properties is coming in July and I am trying to establish if it is applicable to new self build properties too. The wording seems the same as for the 7.5k BUS, it talks about replacing existing systems and new self builds don't get discussed. Does anybody know what the situation is? Can anyone point to a specific document that says new builds are only eligible for the 7.5k BUS? I could easily opt to put an oil boiler into my new home as I am not on mains gas here so I wonder if the incentive applies to me to. As mentioned in another post I have already had the 7.5k grant offered but it has elapsed as it was 6 months ago.
