ECO4 Scheme

What is the ECO4 Scheme?

The ECO4 Scheme, part of the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) program, is a UK government initiative aimed at improving energy efficiency and reducing fuel poverty in low-income and vulnerable households. Running from 2022 to 2026, ECO4 focuses on a “whole house” approach, providing funding for comprehensive energy efficiency measures such as insulation, heating upgrades, and renewable energy installations.
This scheme is designed to help homeowners and private renters make significant improvements to their property’s energy performance, thereby reducing energy bills and carbon emissions while enhancing overall living conditions

The ECO4 Scheme, part of the UK government’s Energy Company Obligation (ECO) program, aims to enhance energy efficiency and reduce fuel poverty in low-income and vulnerable households. It targets homes with low Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) ratings and those on specific benefits, offering a comprehensive “whole house” retrofit approach. This includes various measures like insulation, heating system upgrades, and renewable energy installations.

Funded by energy suppliers, the scheme covers the cost of improvements either fully or partially, based on the household’s eligibility and scope of work. Homeowners or tenants can apply through their energy supplier or a registered ECO installer. Approved upgrades are carried out by certified installers and include loft and wall insulation, boiler replacements, and more, resulting in reduced energy bills, enhanced home comfort, and lower carbon footprints.

What are the benefits as a homeowner?

By upgrading your insulation and heating systems through the ECO4 scheme, you’ll significantly reduce energy waste, leading to lower energy bills. Improved efficiency means your home will retain heat better, cutting down on how much energy you need to stay warm and saving you money in the long run.

Enhanced insulation and modern heating systems help regulate your home’s temperature more effectively. This means you can enjoy a warmer, cozier environment during the winter and a cooler space in the summer, creating a more comfortable living experience year-round.

Upgrading your home with better insulation and energy-efficient heating not only lowers running costs but also adds value to your property. Energy-efficient homes are more attractive to potential buyers, and these improvements can lead to a higher market value if you decide to sell in the future.

By improving your home’s energy efficiency, you’re also reducing its carbon footprint. Energy-efficient homes require less fuel to heat, helping to lower greenhouse gas emissions and contribute to the fight against climate change. It’s a small step with a big environmental impact.

The ECO4 grant offers financial support to cover the costs of these home improvements, meaning you can access free or heavily subsidized insulation and heating upgrades. This makes it easier for you to improve your home without worrying about the upfront costs.
