What Is the ECO5 Scheme?
ECO5 (Energy Company Obligation Phase 5) is the UK Government’s energy efficiency programme running from 2025 to 2028. It is designed to help households in fuel poverty and homes with low EPC ratings receive vital upgrades to reduce energy consumption, improve thermal comfort, and cut carbon emissions.
Administered by Ofgem and funded by large energy suppliers, ECO5 continues the work of ECO4 with greater focus on off-grid homes, harder-to-treat properties, and those most at risk from rising energy costs.
