Housing Minister Margaret Burgess said the allocation of almost £9m would come from the Home Energy Efficiency Programmes for Scotland (HEEPS) funding.
This is the second allocation of the £55m HEEPS pot, with more than £46m distributed to the local authorities earlier this year.
The councils were asked to apply for further funding, with Clackmannanshire, Falkirk, Fife, Glasgow, Midlothian, North Ayrshire, North Lanarkshire, Perth & Kinross, Renfrewshire and West Dunbartonshire all receiving a share.

The investment is targeted at fuel poor households and will be used for the installation of energy efficiency measures such as solid wall, cavity and loft insulation.
Minister Burgess said: "The Scottish Government is determined to help householders stay warm and reduce their energy bills.
"Basic energy efficiency measures can make a huge difference to Scottish families who are struggling to make ends meet, allowing them to heat their homes more cost effectively.
"Rising energy bills remain a huge concern for this government.
"Today's funding will see thousands of homes across Scotland receive new measures like solid wall insulation – helping to drive down the number of people living in fuel poverty."
