A loan that works as hard as your upgrade
We price green borrowing to encourage it, and keep the terms simple so the saving on your project isn't eaten up by the cost of the loan.
Repay early without penalties
Overpay or settle in full at any time at no extra cost. If a grant comes through later, put it straight towards the balance, penalty-free. You only pay interest for the time you actually borrow.
No fees, ever
No setup charges and no administration fees. The rate you see is the cost of the loan, with nothing added on top.
Free loan protection
Free loan protection insurance covers your loan up to your 70th birthday, giving you and your family extra peace of mind. Subject to eligibility and policy terms. View full details.
