Solar grants on Working Tax Credit
Working Tax Credit is a qualifying benefit for ECO4 solar grants when combined with electric heating and an EPC rating of D to G.
Receiving Working Tax Credit places you on the benefits route into ECO4. Whether solar PV is funded depends on your heating type and energy rating, with the final decision resting with your energy supplier. We'll give you a straight answer before referring you on.
The three things that need to line up
- A qualifying benefit - which, with Working Tax Credit, you have.
- Electric heating - solar under ECO4 is only funded where your home is heated by electricity, not mains gas.
- An EPC rating of D to G - the scheme is aimed at less energy-efficient homes.
Your energy supplier makes the final decision on funding, so meeting these conditions is a strong start rather than a guarantee. We'll always be honest with you about where you stand before referring you to an installer.
