  • To support the target of net zero carbon emissions by the year 2050

The ECO4 Scheme launched in 2022; you have until March 2026 to apply for an ECO4 grant. Not sure where to start? That’s where we come in. We have years of experience in helping people just like you make the most of ECO4 energy-saving grants. From ECO4 solar panels to the ECO4 boiler scheme – we have you covered.

ECO4 grants – what can you claim funding for?

There are several different ECO4 energy-saving grants available. Take a look below to see what funding you can claim under the ECO4 scheme:

Electric storage heaters

Under the ECO4 grant scheme, you can get funding to install energy-efficient electric storage heaters to reduce your heating bills and improve your home’s warmth.

Electric boilers

The ECO4 boiler scheme provides funding for installing electric boilers, offering a cleaner, more efficient alternative to gas boilers for your home heating needs.

Hydrogen boilers

The same ECO4 boiler scheme can help households access funding for hydrogen boilers as a forward-thinking, low-carbon heating solution.

Roof insulation

The ECO4 grant supports roof insulation installation, helping you retain heat, reduce energy bills, and increase the comfort of your home.

Wall insulation

Under the ECO4 scheme, funding is available for wall insulation, which is key to improving thermal efficiency and cutting down on heating costs.

Underfloor insulation

The ECO4 energy-saving grants can provide underfloor insulation funding, improving your home’s overall warmth and energy efficiency.

Solar panels

ECO4 solar panels are a major focus of the scheme, helping households generate their own clean energy and save on electricity bills.

Solar battery storage

Along with the ECO4 scheme solar panels, you can also gain access to solar battery storage systems funding, enabling you to store excess solar energy for later use.

Solar inverters

You can find support for solar inverters, essential for converting the direct current (DC) generated by ECO4 solar panels into usable alternating current (AC) for your home.

Air source heat pumps

The ECO4 grant scheme also funds air source heat pumps, a renewable energy solution that extracts heat from the air outside to warm your home efficiently.

Ground source heat pumps

You can also access funding for ground source heat pumps, which utilise the stable underground temperature to provide heating and hot water for your home.

How much funding can you claim under the ECO4 grant scheme?

The amount you can claim on an ECO4 energy-saving grant depends on your unique circumstances and the type of work you want to do.

For example, you could claim as little as £500 for roof insulation and as much as £9,000 for an eco-friendly ground source heat pump or an ECO4 solar panel system. The ECO4 grant could cover a fraction of the project’s entire cost, with each application evaluated on its individual merits.

ECO4 energy-saving grants for certain upgrades are only available until 2024. But don’t worry – we are here to help. Get in touch with our friendly team today, and we will guide you through the application process. If you choose an ECO4 solar panel system, we will even manage the supply and installation.
