Furbnow: Inspiring Homeowners to Create Low Carbon Homes

Becky Lane and Laurence Watson founded Furbnow in October 2022 to help homeowners improve the energy efficiency of their homes through an easy and hassle-free process. With Becky’s experience in the energy industry and Laurence’s skills in leveraging technology to solve climate change challenges, they were perfectly poised to launch a customer-centric business focused on driving real impact.

In just 10 months, Furbnow has experienced rapid growth, expanding from its initial coverage in the West and East Midlands, London, South East and Yorkshire to nationwide service. Their innovative approach provides homeowners the support and confidence they need to make investments in home energy projects that lower bills and carbon emissions.

When Furbnow launched their first product, they had paying customers within two days. According to Becky,

“It’s exciting to see the impact we’re having on our customers, really helping them get started with their home energy project when they’ve not been able to in the past. We’re solving the real consumer problem – giving people confidence in the investment they’re making in their home to warmer at home with lower bills and carbon emissions.”

Furbnow’s exciting journey and accomplishments were recognized when they won the Startup Awards 2023. For the Furbnow team, it was a wonderful surprise and chance to celebrate together. According to Becky,

“It was great to have our progress and growth recognised and to celebrate together.”

With national coverage on the horizon for Q2 2024 and several partnerships already in place, the future looks bright for Furbnow. By leveraging technology and a customer-first focus, Becky and Laurence have built a business poised to deliver real impact in the fight against climate change. Homeowners across the UK can feel confident turning to Furbnow to create low carbon homes and a more sustainable future.
