Get an energy-efficient home with ECO 4 Funding!
The main objective of ECO4 is to improve the least energy efficient housing stock occupied by low income and vulnerable households. One route that can be used to identify these households is ‘ECO4 Flexibility’ (ECO4 Flex). Under ECO4 Flex, a participating Local Authority (LA), can refer private tenure households that it considers to be living in fuel poverty or on a low income and vulnerable to the effects of living in a cold home.
What is affordable Warmth Scheme?
The proposed ECO4 target for obligated suppliers is £224.3 million in notional annual bill savings to be achieved by March 2026. Furthermore, there would be:
- a minimum solid wall insulation upgrade requirement of 90,000 solid wall being insulated from April 2022 to March 2026.
- a minimum equivalent of 150,000 private tenure homes with a preinstallation band E, F and G homes to be upgraded, so that the least energy efficient homes that may be the most difficult to find are not left untreated.

ECO already plays a role in that transition and as the Government increases its efforts, it remains the right approach to prioritise a subset of the population for this help.
