Energy Company Obligation (ECO4) scheme

Claim maximum ECO4 funding with the Daikin Altherma Monobloc and Daikin Altherma Hybrid Heat Pump

About the ECO4 Scheme

ECO4 is the fourth iteration of the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) scheme; a well-established government policy that has already contributed to making British homes warmer and reducing their carbon emissions.

ECO4 has been operational since 2022 and will continue until 2026, during which time the government has committed to investing £4 billion in energy-efficiency and heating measures to achieve the net-zero carbon goal.

The net-zero goal will be achieved by:

improving the fabric insulation of the dwelling
installing new low-carbon heating systems
installing rooftop solar PV where possible

ECO4 has been designed to reduce carbon emissions and combat fuel poverty among low-income and vulnerable households. All domestic premises, including private and social housing, are eligible for the scheme.

How Daikin can support your business with ECO4 projects

Under ECO4 scheme, “integrated gas hybrid heat pump” and "air source heat pumps" are eligible renewable heating measure This means that an installer can use the standard configuration of the Daikin Altherma Hybrid heat pump system as a possible ECO4 heating solution, replacing old heating system for on-gas properties. Daikin Altherma Monobloc Heat Pump is suitable for installation in any dwelling type, whether E, F or G-rated, terraced, semi-detached, detached, bungalow or flat.

Achieving High SAP Band B

When Daikin hybrid heat pump or Daikin monobloc heat pump is installed along with fabric and roof top solar PV, this combination of measures not only meet the minimum requirements (MR) for majority of archetypes but also will give the installers to achieve “High SAP Band B”. This will gain the maximum possible grant under ECO4. No additional money is given above High SAP Band B under the ECO4 scheme.
