How we can help make your home more energy efficient
We could help you save on your energy bills with free or part-funded upgrades
If you want to make your home warmer and more energy efficient, we could help. Through us, you can apply for government schemes that are all about installing energy efficiency measures in your home. Like a new boiler, insulation, a heat pump, and more through the current ECO4 scheme. Or upgraded insulation for cavity walls and lofts through the Great British Insulation Scheme.
Making UK homes more energy efficient
The more energy efficient your home, the less heat will escape, and the less energy your home needs to use. That means you can save money on your bills, keep your home warm, and cut carbon too.
At OVO Energy, we want to make sure no-one is left behind on the road to low-carbon living. We’re on a path towards energy that’s better for your wallet and the planet. Helping the UK become more energy efficient makes the future greener for us all.
You can access ECO4 and the Great British Insulation Scheme through us – whether you’re an OVO Energy customer or not. We’ll sort you out with trusted installers who’ll support you along the way.
ECO4 and Great British Insulation Scheme: what are they?
The main government energy-efficiency schemes are ECO4 and the Great British Insulation Scheme. You don't need to be an OVO Energy customer to apply for either scheme through us.
ECO4 support
You can get a whole package of energy saving measures installed through ECO4, from insulation and boilers to heat pumps. And if you’re eligible, it will all be free.
To qualify for the ECO4 scheme, you must:
- have an EPC rating of E, F, or G (or D, if you own your home)
- be receiving certain means-tested benefits
The Great British Insulation Scheme
This scheme is all about keeping heat inside your home by installing cavity wall and loft insulation. If you’re eligible, you could get this either for free or at a reduced cost.
To qualify for the Great British Insulation Scheme, you must:
- have an EPC rating of D, E, F or G
- get means-tested benefits or live in a home that falls within Council Tax bands A-D in England, or A-E in Scotland and Wales
