Broxbourne ECO Scheme

Broxbourne Borough Council ECO Scheme

Summary

YES Energy Solutions is working in partnership with Broxbourne Borough Council to provide funding towards heating system upgrades and insulation installs to residents in the area.

Scheme in detail

The scheme aims to improve the energy efficiency of Broxbourne homes to help qualifying residents keep warmer and save money on their energy bills.

Measures in the scheme may be fully funded in some cases by the Government’s Energy Company Obligation (ECO) Scheme.

The following measures are available for eligible customers:

  • Boiler replacements
  • First time central heating systems
  • Loft insulation
  • Cavity wall insulation
  • Under floor insulation
  • Room in roof insulation
  • External wall insulation

Safety is our main priority and the scheme is following the latest government guidelines in regards to coronavirus safety. Our friendly customer advisors can explain the procedures our installers have put in place to ensure safety of residents and staff.

Our Involvement

Broxbourne Borough Council appointed YES Energy Solutions to manage the delivery of the scheme following the Hertfordshire Warmer Homes Scheme in which the partnership developed.

We are project managing the scheme, recruiting eligible customers and managing installs via our network of industry accredited contractors.

YES Energy Solutions are also securing ECO funding to inject into the scheme which is obtained through our contracts with major energy companies.
