The Energy Company Obligation (ECO) is a UK government scheme aimed at improving energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions. It's designed to help low-income, fuel-poor, and vulnerable households heat their homes more effectively by installing measures such as insulation or upgrading heating systems.
Who is eligible for the ECO grant?
The ECO grant is primarily aimed at homeowners or tenants who are considered to be in fuel poverty. Eligibility is determined by various factors including your current benefits, your property type, and your current heating system. You can complete our quick eligibility form to find out if you qualify.

Once you're deemed eligible for the grant, we provide a free survey of your property and an installation of your new energy-efficient measure by a certified engineer.
