Savings are the measure’s share of the home’s own certificate saving, estimated the same way the Upgrade Plan estimates it, then taken across every home recommended this measure.
Low energy lighting typically adds 0.3 EPC points, at about £120 a point. A grade band is 11–14 points wide, so on its own it rarely moves a whole grade — it is bought for the points, and combined with the other cheap measures on the list.
No open scheme currently supports this measure.
