One energy-focussed business in particular is there to guide you, assess your home’s energy-saving needs, weave through the form-filling red tape and then ultimately transform your home.
The award-winning team from EnergySmart is passionate about helping individuals and families that are suffering as a result of fuel poverty.
EnergySmart knows how to help you make the most of a special funding scheme which is designed to address fuel poverty, improve energy efficiency, and reduce carbon emissions in households.
That could be your household.
What is the scheme and how to get involved
The government-driven Energy Company Obligation (ECO) provides funding for energy saving upgrades in your home, such as solar panels, heating upgrades and insulation.
People who claim qualifying benefits or live in a low-income household could benefit from an ECO grant which could transform their home and make it much more energy efficient.
Home improvements can include:
· Better insulation
· Central heating upgrades
· Solar panels
· Storage heaters
It sounds like a dream come true: lower bills and create a better home.
This is because energy companies are required to achieve specific targets for installing energy efficiency measures, including insulation, heating upgrades, and renewable technologies in eligible properties across the country.
The grant scheme ultimately brings other benefits such as a reduced carbon footprint, a healthier indoor environment, alleviating fuel poverty, and the benefit of professional advice from a business such as EnergySmart.
How EnergySmart offers help
EnergySmart not only advises you on your home’s energy needs, but the business can also help you find out if you’re eligible for the ECO grant.
If so, its specialist installation team will then transform your home.
In seven years, EnergySmart has upgraded hundreds of properties.
It has helped people save millions of pounds in annual bill savings (ABS) which is a significant contribution in helping hundreds of households across the UK with their energy bills.
EnergySmart can influence your home’s energy efficiencies for years to come, as its specialist team will take you through all the steps to reap the potential that the ECO funding scheme could bring you.
What to do next
EnergySmart Managing Director Harvey Mason said: “We’re so keen to get the message out there about the ECO grants. Not many people are aware that free funding is available to upgrade the energy efficiency of people's homes. Tens of thousands of pounds are available for each property, providing 100% free funding for solar panels, upgraded central heating systems and improved insulation. However, the scheme is only available for a limited time. Hence us trying to get the message out there for people in the local areas”
