The UK government’s ECO4 Scheme is a ground breaking initiative designed to empower households to replace their 10+ years old ageing, inefficient boilers with modern, energy-efficient models. This forward-looking program not only makes it more accessible for homeowners to enhance their heating systems but also significantly contributes to reducing energy bills, fostering a more sustainable and cost-effective future. Check out your eligibility today and apply for a new free boiler replacement.

The Free Boiler Scheme was officially launched in 2013 as part of the Energy Company Obligation (ECO), passed in the UK Parliament in 2012. ECO consists of three obligations, one of which is the Home Heating Cost Reduction Obligation. This obligation focuses on reducing heating costs for vulnerable and low-income households by improving the energy efficiency of their homes.

The Free Boiler Scheme, a key ECO component, addresses this obligation by providing a free boiler grant scheme to eligible households. This initiative was introduced to combat fuel poverty, enhance energy efficiency, and reduce carbon emissions, making homes warmer, more cost-effective to run, and environmentally friendly for the people of the United Kingdom.

The government keeps the Free Boiler Scheme free by leveraging energy companies and suppliers. These companies are obligated to fund the program through various obligations and initiatives. One of the key elements is the Energy Company Obligation (ECO), which mandates large energy companies to invest in energy efficiency improvements. The ECO scheme ensures that eligible households receive free boiler replacements, helping the government achieve its energy efficiency and carbon reduction targets. The government mandates energy companies to provide free, efficient heating solutions.
