ECO4
ECO 4, or the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) scheme, is a government-driven initiative in the UK aimed at improving the energy efficiency of homes, particularly for low-income and vulnerable households. ECO 4 is an extension of earlier phases of the ECO scheme and is designed to help achieve the UK’s climate goals by reducing carbon emissions and helping to alleviate fuel poverty.
The scheme provides funding for energy efficiency improvements such as insulation, heating system upgrades, and renewable energy installations. The primary focus is on helping those who are most in need, including low-income families, older adults, and those in receipt of certain benefits.

Contact Energy Suppliers
The ECO scheme is funded by the major energy suppliers in the UK. You can begin your application by contacting your energy provider to inquire if they are part of the ECO 4 scheme and what assistance they may offer.
Installation

After the improvements are made, you may receive ongoing support and advice on how to use energy more efficiently in your home, further helping you to reduce energy bills and carbon emissions.
