Government grants and schemes.
Get the funding you need to improve your home.
Making improvements to boost your home’s energy efficiency rating doesn’t have to drain your bank balance. If you live in England, Scotland or Wales, and tick all the eligibility boxes, we offer free and part-funded government energy efficiency grants and schemes to help you.
These brilliant initiatives cover everything, from home insulation to solar panels and heat pumps. And the great news is – you don’t need to be an E.ON Next customer to benefit.
What are the benefits of upgrading your home?
We offer a range of government-supported upgrades that could improve your home’s energy efficiency rating, boost comfort, and help you save money on your energy bills. We currently offer the following energy efficiency home improvements:
Home insulation.
Don't let the heat escape. Better insulation for your loft and walls could help you make long term savings while boosting comfort.
Introducing better insulation could:
Cut heating costs.
Reduce energy waste and improve your Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating.
Keep your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer.
Solar panels.
Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) cells. They may help reduce your energy bills while generating clean, sustainable energy.
Introducing solar panels could:
Help you make long term energy savings.
Boost your independence from the grid.
Help reduce your carbon footprint.
Air source heat pumps.
A heat pump is a more efficient answer to a heater or boiler. No matter what the weather, you'll get a fully controllable heating and hot water system.
Installing a heat pump could:
Cut energy costs.
Be more energy efficient.
Reduce your emissions.
Give you cosy warmth throughout your home.

Warm Homes Local Grant (WHLG).
We're working in partnership with local authorities across England to help make a difference to people’s homes. We’re offering energy efficient improvements to low-income households receiving certain benefits and with EPC ratings between D and G. If you qualify, everything is fully funded, and you don’t have to be an E.ON Next customer.
What is the Warm Homes Local Grant?
The Warm Homes Local Grant is a government initiative that will deliver £500m worth of funding through local authorities. Together, we’re aiming to improve homes throughout England by installing low-carbon, energy-efficient upgrades for homeowners and renters (landlord permission required).
What does the Warm Homes Local Grant include?
Depending on where you live in the country, you could get a range of improvements, including:
Solid wall insulation.
Homes with solid walls can lose up to twice as much heat as modern cavity walls. If your home was built before 1920, it’s likely to have solid walls. External wall insulation can help reduce the amount of heat lost.
Cavity wall insulation.
By adding or improving the insulation in your home’s walls you could prevent heat loss and save money off your future heating bills.
Loft insulation.
You can lose a lot of heat through your home's roof. So insulating your loft or a room in your roof is a simple and effective way to get those heating bills down.
Solar panels.
Solar panels could help reduce your energy bills in the long-run. Plus, you'll also be generating your own clean, sustainable energy that you can sell back to the grid.
Air source heat pumps.
No matter the weather, you'll get a fully controllable heating and hot water system year-round.
Do I qualify for the Warm Homes Local Grant?
