What is the External Wall Insulation Grant?

The external wall insulation grant (EWI) is part of the UK Government’s Energy Company Obligation (ECO4) scheme. It provides fully funded or heavily subsidised insulation to properties with poor heat retention—especially homes with solid or uninsulated external walls.

If your home was built before 1930 or has solid walls instead of cavity walls, you may be losing up to 35% of your heat through the walls. The ECO4 scheme offers free external wall insulation to qualifying households to address this.

  • Funded by major energy suppliers
  • Covers materials and installation
  • Significantly reduces heat loss and energy bills
  • Improves your home’s EPC rating
