What is the Great British Insulation Scheme?

The Great British Insulation Scheme (GBIS) is designed to complement the existing ECO scheme, referred to as ECO4. This initiative aims to facilitate the installation of energy-efficient measures, ultimately reducing energy consumption and helping you save on your utility bills. The scheme is set to launch by Summer 2023 and will continue through March 2026. The government estimates that households could save approximately £310 per year through this program.

How will the Great British Insulation Scheme help lower my bills?

Enhancing the energy efficiency of our homes is a highly effective means of decreasing household energy consumption and, consequently, reducing heating costs.

The GBIS insulation measures, which significantly reduce heat loss and result in savings on your heating expenses. Insulation acts as a barrier, preventing heat from escaping through your loft, windows, and walls, leading to a more energy-efficient and cost-effective home.

Who’s eligible for the Great British Insulation Scheme?

Under the new Great British Insulation Scheme, there will be two distinct groups, each with specific eligibility criteria: the general group and the low-income eligibility group. These groups will benefit from varying levels of support tailored to their respective circumstances.

  • live in a home in council tax bands A to D (England)
  • live in a home in council tax bands A to E (Scotland and Wales)
  • have an EPC rating of D to G (find your EPC)
  • Private renters: your EPC must be in band D or E

Low Income Group

To be eligible for the low-income group, you must:

  • receive qualifying benefits
  • live in the least efficient housing
  • have an EPC rating of D to G
If you are not sure, you can find out your Council Tax band here.

Here are some of the measures we’ll offer as part of The Great British Insulation Scheme:

Loft Insulation

Did you know that up to a quarter of heat is lost through the roof in an uninsulated home – over time this can become expensive.

Cavity Wall Insulation

Getting cavity wall insulation installed in your home is by far one of the most efficient ways of saving energy and money. Did you know that without insulation, around a third of your home’s heat escapes through the walls.
