Hounslow declared a climate emergency in 2019, and the Cabinet adopted the Climate Emergency Action Plan in 2020. The Hounslow Green Investment will support the Council’s strategic sustainability goals, while giving everyone in the community the chance to get involved and benefit from the green transition.
Hounslow Green Investment is a great way for people to invest in the borough and make a decent return too. But more importantly, it is encouraging people to take an active role in lowering local carbon emissions.

How your money is being used
Funds will be used to help fund energy efficiency, green energy and greening projects within existing council green programmes, including the Hounslow Community Energy Fund, which supports community-led decarbonisation projects and the Thriving Communities Fund, which provides grants to charities, voluntary and community groups and places of worship in Hounslow.
They also intend to support energy efficiency updates for schools, and active travel initiatives, Circular Economy hubs with interventions like reuse and repair events, as well as the Grow for the Future campaign, which is a pioneering Hounslow initiative and the UK’s first policy to transform unused council land to grow food and educate children on healthy living.
Taking climate action and reaching net zero by 2030
