How Does ECO4 Cover Solar Panels?
The government's ECO4 scheme provides a significant opportunity for free solar energy in the UK. Under ECO4, solar panel grants can cover up to 100% of installation costs for eligible households, making this one of the most generous solar energy grants for homes currently available.
ECO4 is available throughout England, Scotland, and Wales, and is typically funded by the ‘big 6' energy suppliers. Your solar panel grant eligibility is often highest when solar PV is combined with other measures such as insulation or heating upgrades, aiming to reduce overall energy usage. At Rural Energy Saving Grants, we handle all the checks and paperwork, ensuring your installation is processed efficiently and to the highest standards.
