To be eligible for scheme you'll need to:
receive means-tested benefits or live in a home that falls within Council Tax bands A-D in England, A-E in Scotland and A-E in Wales
If eligible for the Great British Insulation Scheme, you'll receive a single insulation measure (loft or cavity wall insulation).
If you have already applied for ECO4 you can still apply for the Great British Insulation Scheme.
The Energy Company Obligation (ECO) scheme was set up in April 2013. The scheme aims to help eligible customers make their homes more energy-efficient by installing free energy-saving measures and heating improvements. This helps customers keep their homes warm and energy consumption down.
Eligible EDF customers can install a range of energy efficiency improvements that will help them improve their home's EPC rating.
How will it work?
It's all about improving the EPC rating. Eligible customers will have a survey carried out on their homes. This will identify to the installer which package of measures will need to be installed to improve a customer's EPC rating.
