Who loves Snugg?
A lot of people want to do these things, but the learning curve is steep. Tools like Snugg make the whole process much more manageable. They helped me feel like everything was achievable.
Snugg is amazing. The website’s really straight forward and tells you everything you need to know. It gives you all the information about how much things would cost, how much you’d save and it’s really easy to understand.
Seeing everything in one place is just so useful. I can build a plan, check out the availability of relevant grants and then hunt down an installer to do the work, all in one place. It’s brilliant!
I love Snugg!! This site’s so easy to use and it helped us understand the changes we can make to bring our energy bills down. I'd definitely recommend using Snugg if you want to make your home more energy efficient.

Frequently asked questions
The amount you could save will vary depending on your needs and circumstances. You can find out for free using the Snugg platform. You'll get a list of the energy efficiency measures you could put in place in your home, along with estimates of how much making each change could save you on your energy bills. We base estimates on your type of home, the type of installation and current energy prices. Snugg doesn’t make the changes for you, but we'll signpost you to installers that can.
After inputting your postcode, the Snugg platform generates a model of your property based on a number of sources including EPC certificate if available, and the Energy Savings Trust’s (EST) Home Analytics database. The Snugg tool then allows users to check the details created by this model and correct if required. We then use EST’s Dynamic Engine to model all possible combinations of energy savings measures to meet your budget and goal. Finally, Snugg generates a tailored action plan, identifying the most cost-effective measures.
Snugg is completely free for our users. We want to ensure everyone benefits from our service without any costs or hidden fees. So instead, we earn money by partnering with organisations who pay us a fee to provide their customers with a customised version of Snugg. We also receive limited referral fees and commissions from our installation partners.
No. Instead, the Snugg platform helps you understand which sources of funding might be available to you. This might include government grants and loans, for example. We hope to include links to other financial options available through banks and other providers soon.
Nothing! Snugg is free for users.
No. Snugg is mostly aimed at property owners, including private landlords, who want to improve their home's energy efficiency. But some home energy improvement grants are available to tenants. So if you're a renting tenant, you'll need to check if you're eligible for the options we recommend and check your lease to make sure that you're allowed to make the energy efficiency changes suggested.
If your home is in England, Wales or Northern Ireland, you can find your full EPC report on the Gov.uk website. If your home is in Scotland, you can find it on the Scottish Energy Performance Certificate Register.
We estimate the value that your home will increase based on the highest of two calculations:
- How much, in today's money, your home’s energy bills will be reduced over a 12-year period (the average time people stay in their homes).
- The increase in price for heat pumps and solar installations as a percentage of the money spent on the improvement, based on historical data analysed by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).
We're constantly improving our approach and would value any feedback you may have in this area.
