What is the Energy Company Obligation?

The Energy Company Obligation (ECO) is a government energy efficiency scheme in Great Britain that helps tackle carbon emissions and fuel poverty.

Under the scheme, some energy companies are required to provide funding for eligible households and energy efficiency improvements.

If you are on qualifying benefits or meet our ECO Flexible Eligibility criteria, then you or your tenant may be eligible to receive funding towards energy efficiency improvements in your home.

Further information can be found on the Ofgem website.
