The Energy Company Obligation 4 (ECO4) scheme is a UK government initiative aimed at enhancing the energy efficiency of homes, particularly those occupied by low-income and vulnerable households. Launched in April 2022 and set to run until March 2026, ECO4 represents the fourth phase of the broader Energy Company Obligation program. Its primary goals are to reduce carbon emissions, lower energy bills, and improve living conditions by implementing energy-saving measures.
• Energy Efficiency Improvements: ECO4 focuses on upgrading the least energy-efficient properties, targeting homes with Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) ratings between D and G. The scheme promotes a comprehensive, whole-house retrofit approach to ensure maximum energy savings.
• Support for Vulnerable Households: By concentrating on low-income and fuel-poor households, ECO4 aims to alleviate fuel poverty and enhance the comfort and well-being of residents.
• Carbon Emission Reduction: Through the installation of energy-efficient measures, the scheme contributes to the UK’s commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
