The Energy Company Obligation, or ECO scheme, is a requirement for energy suppliers with more than 150,000 customers to reduce the costs of home heating by fitting energy-saving improvements. Funding is prioritised to vulnerable and low-income households, helping those in fuel poverty who would otherwise struggle to afford the cost of solar panels. Having begun in 2013, the latest version of the scheme (ECO3) will run until March 2022 before being replaced by ECO4, which will continue to offer solar panel grants.
