Reduce your heating bill for free

The UK’s insulation grants, including the ECO scheme funded by major utility companies, help households improve energy efficiency at no cost. Grants available under ECO3 and LA FLEX cover different types of insulation, such as cavity wall and loft insulation, as well as first-time central heating and boiler replacements.

How is the Boiler Grant free?

New A-rated boiler grants under the ECO scheme allow inefficient boilers to be replaced free of charge or heavily subsidised. Homeowners with boilers over five years old or deemed faulty may be eligible. Older or less efficient properties are more likely to receive full funding, while very efficient properties may require a small contribution, which is advised before any work is carried out.

How long does installation take?

Most properties can have cavity wall and loft insulation installed in just a few hours, while larger households may require a full day for installation.

Homeowner information

To qualify for government grants, you must legally own the property or obtain landlord permission if renting. You must also be receiving at least one qualifying benefit, such as Child Benefit, Pension Guarantee Credit, ESA, JSA, Income Support, Tax Credits, Universal Credit, Housing Benefit, or Pension Credit Saving Credit.

How much can you save on your energy bills?

Savings vary depending on property type and insulation installed. Based on Energy Saving Trust data, cavity wall and internal wall insulation can significantly reduce annual energy bills. A visual estimate of potential savings is available in the graph provided on the page.

Solar panels let you generate your own renewable electricity, helping you reduce energy bills, lower your carbon footprint and become less reliant on the grid. Any excess electricity you generate may also be exported to the grid through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), allowing you to receive payments from an eligible SEG energy supplier for electricity you export. With potential grant support and the opportunity to earn from surplus energy, solar panels can be a smart way to take control of your home’s energy.

Adding battery storage can help make your home more energy efficient and give you greater control over your energy use.
