The Affordable Warmth and Energy Efficiency (AWEE) Team at Shropshire Council won the National Insulation & Fabric Project of the Year award at the Energy Efficiency Awards 2025. Recognized for their work on a historic home in Bishop's Castle, the project was part of the Government-funded Home Upgrade Grant Phase 2 scheme.

The team collaborated with retrofit partners CT ECO Plus and SWIP LTD to implement energy efficiency measures, including internal wall insulation and a low carbon air-source heat pump. Post-installation feedback indicated improved comfort for the resident. The project demonstrated successful management of technical challenges while adhering to PAS standards.
