Why it is important

We know that suitable energy in homes is one of the key measures for reducing energy vulnerability. This is stated in the 2019-2024 National Strategy to Tackle Energy Poverty, which includes our initiative as an example of good practices.

Who it is aimed at

Social housing managed by Public Bodies and Third Sector organisations that the Foundation collaborates with.

What type of assistance it covers

Donations are used to carry out household energy rehabilitation work, repair or replace household equipment and improve interior electricity and gas installations.

How we select the houses

The social entities we work with choose the homes that most urgently require renovation from among the families they support.

Who can donate

Any willing individuals, companies, associations or entities can contribute. Donations can be made via the payment platform set up for this purpose, and we will double the amounts received.

What the Foundation contributes

We undertake to contribute the same amount as any donations received.

We respond to your doubts

What does the Energy Rehabilitation of homes include?

Home improvements to increase energy efficiency, which can be completed dynamically and without making structural changes. The solutions are classified as follows: floors, roofs, woodwork and glass and solar protection.

Installations that maintain the temperature and humidity in homes at a suitably healthy level, such as fridges, cookers, heaters, boilers and dehumidifiers.

In accordance with the basic regulations to guarantee supply and adhere to the security regulations.
Is there a minimum amount to donate?

Donors can contribute as much as they like, as long as it does not exceed €10,000.
Is there a tax credit for this donation?

Every year, the Naturgy Foundation issues accreditation certificates for contributions from every donor.
How do you select the homes in which to do a rehabilitation?

The Third Sector organisations that the Naturgy Foundation collaborates with propose the social housing of families that are cared for by their vulnerability programmes.

The social housing proposed by public organisations is also considered.
How are projects prioritized?

Preference is given to the projects that look after the most vulnerable groups with the most urgent needs. The stability of the family, as well as their permanence in the home where the work is carried out, must be taken into account.
How is the actions monitored?

The Naturgy Foundation monitors all the proposals and operations carried out in the homes in order to compare comfort and energy expenses. It creates an annual monitoring report of the Fund which includes operations carried out, the recipients and the benefit gained, and it will be published on the Foundation website.

What are the renovations?

The works last a short period of time.
Families can remain inside the home.
The solutions suit the specific conditions of the building.
They can be carried out without a construction permit.
The solutions are carried out inside, do not require scaffolding and do not affect the exterior façades.

Prior to the rehabilitation, an energy survey of the home will be carried out in order to obtain a base line of energy consumption. An initial analysis of the existing installation will be carried out at the same and this will assess whether a more efficient installation is required or if the current installation needs to be repaired.

The improvement and rehabilitation works in the homes are based on the recommendations from our study “Express Rehabilitation for Vulnerable Homes. Low-cost Solutions”.
