Am I Eligible for Government Energy Grants?

Government energy grants have strict but wide-ranging criteria to make sure support reaches the households who need it most. You could qualify based on benefits, income, health conditions, property type, or energy efficiency.

Qualifying Benefits

If you or someone in your household receives any of the following, you may qualify for full or part funding:

  • Universal Credit (UC)

  • Pension Credit (Guarantee or Savings Credit)

  • Housing Benefit

  • Income Support (IS)

  • Jobseeker’s Allowance (income-based)

  • Employment and Support Allowance (income-related)

  • Child Tax Credit

  • Working Tax Credit

Income Thresholds

Households with a combined annual income under £31,000 may qualify even if no benefits are claimed. Child Benefit has separate income thresholds which vary by household size, for example, single parents earning under £19,900 with one child may be eligible.

Health Conditions (LA Flex Routes)

Health Conditions

Councils can approve funding for households where medical conditions are worsened by cold housing. Common qualifying health issues include:

  • Respiratory problems (e.g. asthma, COPD, bronchitis)

  • Cardiovascular conditions (e.g. heart disease, high blood pressure)

  • Limited mobility or disabilities

  • Immunosuppression or chronic illness

Property Efficiency (EPC Rating)

Property Efficiency (EPC Rating)

Your home’s energy efficiency plays a major role in grant eligibility:

  • Properties rated D, E, F or G are classed as inefficient and most likely to qualify.

  • Some schemes may also accept EPC Band C homes if insulation is lacking or outdated.

Homeownership & Tenancy

Eligibility is not limited to homeowners:

  • Homeowners qualify directly if they meet the income, benefits, or EPC criteria.

  • Private tenants can apply with landlord consent for the upgrades.

  • Landlords may apply for dedicated EPC upgrade funding to ensure their rental homes meet minimum standards and remain compliant with regulations.

Our eligibility checker reviews all these factors and our in house experts will confirm what funding is available for your household.

Get Support for Low-Income Households

Government energy grants are specifically designed to help households struggling with high bills and cold homes. If your income is low, or someone in your property receives qualifying benefits, you may be entitled to funding that minimises the cost barrier to essential upgrades.

  • Heating system upgrades: Outdated or broken boilers can be replaced at no cost, removing the risk of breakdowns.

  • Full insulation packages: Loft, wall, or underfloor insulation provided free to reduce draughts, damp, and wasted heat.

  • Council-approved funding routes: Even without benefits, households with health conditions or low income can still qualify.

If you don’t qualify, we offer finance options to make heating system upgrades and insulation affordable for every household.

Applying for Energy Grants FAQs

We have tried to answer most questions here but if you have any other queries please feel free to contact us!

Do I need documents before I apply?

No, the first form is simple. Once you’ve applied, we’ll guide you on what’s needed, typically proof of benefits (if applicable), a recent utility bill, and an EPC rating (we can arrange this if you don’t have one).

Can I apply if my boiler still works?

Yes. Grants aren’t only for broken systems, if your boiler is old, inefficient, or not condensing, you may still qualify for a replacement or upgrade.

What if my home doesn’t have an EPC?

Don’t worry, part of our process includes arranging an EPC assessment. This ensures your home meets the criteria and avoids any delays in your application.

How quickly will I see savings after installation?

Most households notice immediate reductions in bills once insulation or new heating is in place. For example, loft insulation can save up to £400 a year, while heat pumps cut reliance on expensive fossil fuels.

What if I don’t meet the criteria?

We’ll explain why and give you potential alternatives, including finance plans that spread the cost of boilers, insulation, or renewable systems, so cost never blocks your upgrade.
