The Challenge
Four residential flats in Upton required comprehensive energy efficiency upgrades to meet modern standards and reduce heating costs for tenants. The properties needed improvements across multiple areas including insulation, renewable energy, heating systems, and ventilation.
The Solution
EGi Energy partnered with G Properties to deliver a complete ECO4 retrofit package:
- Roof Insulation: Enhanced thermal performance across all four flats
- Solar Panel Installation: Renewable energy generation to reduce electricity costs
- Electric Storage Heaters (ESH): Modern, efficient heating systems installed

- Ventilation Strategy: Optimised air quality and moisture control
Tenant Qualification
The tenants qualified for ECO4 grant funding, enabling these essential improvements to be completed at no cost to them or their landlord. This government-backed scheme targets low-income households and those in fuel poverty, making energy-efficient homes accessible to those who need them most.
The Results
- Significantly reduced energy bills for all four households
- Improved thermal comfort throughout the year
- Reduced carbon footprint through renewable energy generation
- Enhanced property value for the landlord
- Better indoor air quality through improved ventilation
- Future-proofed properties meeting modern energy standards
