What is the catch?

It may sound too good to be true, but there’s no catch. If your circumstances and benefits meet the government’s criteria, the ECO4 grant is accessible to you. 

Right now, eligible applicants on benefits can have their home upgraded absolutely free of charge as part of the government’s efforts to make them more energy efficient and reduce our carbon footprint as part of international treaty agreements.

The ECO4 initiative supports low-income households in the poorest efficiency homes (EPC ratings E, F & G) by covering the cost of energy-efficient home upgrades, eliminating any financial burden.
