ECO4 IS A GOVERNMENT BACKED SCHEME

What is the ECO 4 Scheme?

The ECO4 scheme is a Government established scheme to help households achieve their goal of going 100% carbon neutral.

The ECO4 scheme provides grants to fund energy-efficient upgrades to homes reducing emissions, electricity and energy bills.

These grants pay for new heating systems like boilers, loft or cavity wall installation and other measures designed primarily to increase energy efficiency and reduce fuel poverty and energy costs.
