Highland Council needs £307M to upgrade 14,968 social homes to EPC C, with nearly half lacking energy ratings.
Highland Council says it needs at least £307 million—over £30,000 per property—to upgrade its 14,968 social homes to meet EPC C standards, with nearly 4,820 lacking any EPC certificate.
Of those with ratings, thousands are in bands D, E, F, or G, indicating poor energy efficiency.
Local MSP Edward Mountain criticized the lack of clear timelines and data, stressing the challenge of meeting Scotland’s 2045 net zero goals.
The council has completed nearly 8,000 energy efficiency measures under its current plan and will release a new 2027–2032 capital plan in May, with tenant feedback influencing future upgrades.
