More homes will get solar panels and better insulation, while more environmentally friendly lighting will be installed in car parks and venues after a £1.5m boost for Norwich.
Norwich City Council has been awarded the extra government cash to help cut carbon emissions.
City Hall has won a £715,000 share of the £500m Green Homes Grant scheme, which will see 50 homes get solid wall insulation/cladding, while 30 more will get solar panels.
The council has also been awarded £740,000 through the government decarbonisation funding scheme.
That will be used to provide renewable heating at City Hall and a large solar system at the council’s new environmental services depot at Hurricane Way.
