This report assesses the ERDF funded elements of the Arbed 3 programme against its stated outputs and delivery objectives reflecting ERDF claims up to March 2021.

Miller Research was commissioned by Welsh Government in April 2020 to undertake a process and impact evaluation of the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) supported Arbed 3 programme. This report assesses the success of the ERDF funded elements of the Arbed 3 programme against its stated outputs and delivery objectives reflecting ERDF claims up to March 2021.The report also explores the wider outcomes and impacts of the programme and includes conclusions and recommendations relevant to similar, future programmes in Wales.

Whilst the Arbed 3 programme has faced substantial challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic during its delivery period, it has demonstrated success in targeting of fuel poor and severely fuel poor households and has delivered well against the revised targets. The programme has led to improved EPC ratings in 2546 D, E,F & G rated homes in Wales, with subsequent long-term improvements in living conditions, financial position of householders, and carbon reduction against Welsh Government commitments.
