ECO Boiler Scheme

What is ECO Boiler?

In the past decade, the Government of the UK has taken some effective initiatives to reduce the carbon footprint and greenhouse gases, creating a more sustainable environment. The Energy Company Obligation’s Boiler Scheme is one of the shining stars of these efforts, which is put into effect to help low-income households receive efficient boilers, reduce their carbon footprint, and increase their energy efficiency.

Heating City Energy Ltd has helped numerous households receive fast and efficient boiler grants over the years and elevate their living standards. You can follow our application process to get your free ECO boiler grant.
