The ECO (Energy Company Obligation) Scheme is a vital energy efficiency initiative in the United Kingdom aimed at reducing carbon emissions, alleviating fuel poverty, and enhancing the energy efficiency of homes and properties. Launched in 2013, the ECO Scheme places obligations on larger energy companies to fund energy-saving improvements in domestic properties. This scheme primarily targets vulnerable and low-income households, as well as those living in fuel poverty, to ensure that everyone can enjoy a warm and energy-efficient living environment.
