In the Clean Growth Strategy the Government committed to extend support for home energy efficiency improvements until 2028 at least at the current level of Energy Company Obligation (ECO) funding. We will review the best form of support beyond 2022, including how it should be funded.

We have committed to extend ECO at £640m per annum until 2022 and will be consulting on the next phase of the scheme (2018 – 2022) early next year.
