Expanding Energy Efficiency in Birmingham: Partner with Us on the GBIS and ECO4 Scheme
Transforming Homes, Empowering Communities in Birmingham Area
Are you looking to make a significant impact on energy efficiency in Birmingham? Discover how partnering with us on the ECO4 and the Great British Insulation Scheme can revolutionise the way we address fuel poverty and enhance the living standards for our most vulnerable residents.
What is ECO4 LA Flex Scheme?
The ECO4 Scheme is a UK government initiative aimed at improving home energy efficient measures and reducing fuel poverty by requiring energy companies to finance the upgrades of various heating measures.
The ECO4 Flex mechanism empowers Local Authorities (LAs) to extend eligibility for energy efficiency measures, crucial for reaching households not covered by standard criteria. It allows LAs to tailor eligibility to specific local needs, ensuring broader access to energy saving home improvements.
This flexibility ensures that energy efficiency measures such as insulation, air source heat pump, solar panels and smart heating controls reach a broader demographic, including those on low income or in vulnerable living conditions, thereby making a significant impact on community well-being and environmental sustainability.
