Unlock Fully Funded Upgrades for Rental Properties at No Cost
At EGi Energy, we help private landlords access ECO4 grant funding to improve the energy efficiency of their rental properties. When your tenants qualify for the scheme, the upgrades are fully funded, meaning you can raise EPC ratings, reduce tenant bills and protect your investment at no cost to you or your tenant.
Why ECO4 Matters for Private Landlords
As a landlord, you face increasing pressure to:
Meet rented property EPC requirements to remain compliant.
Provide tenants with affordable, energy-efficient homes.
Safeguard and increase the long-term value of your properties.
ECO4 makes this possible by funding upgrades such as:
Loft, cavity wall and solid wall insulation
High-efficiency heating systems and air-source heat pumps
Solar PV installations
Whole-home retrofit improvements
All improvements are carried out by TrustMark-registered installers and come with full warranties and guarantees.
Property Assessment
Check to see if your property qualifies for a ECO4 Grant, just enter your property postcode and select your address from the list for a quick assessment.

Our Process
Desktop Assessment
We begin with a desktop assessment of your property to check eligibility for ECO4 funding and identify potential improvements before a site visit.
Pre Property Assessment
A pre-property assessment is carried out to gather key information on the building, its current energy performance, and suitability for upgrades.
Tenant Application
Tenants complete a simple application to confirm eligibility for ECO4 funding. Our team supports them through the process to make it quick and stress-free.
Retrofit Assessment
A qualified assessor visits the property to carry out a full retrofit assessment, identifying the most effective measures to boost energy efficiency and EPC ratings.
Energy Efficiency Design
Based on the retrofit assessment, we design a tailored package of improvements that meet ECO4 requirements and deliver maximum benefits for the property.
Schedule of Works
A clear schedule of works is created, detailing the measures to be installed, timelines, and access arrangements to minimise disruption for tenants.
Work Completed
Our accredited installers complete the agreed upgrades to the highest standards, ensuring full compliance with ECO4 and industry regulations.
Post Property Assessment
A follow-up inspection is carried out to confirm all improvements have been installed correctly and the property meets the targeted energy performance standards. A new EPC will also be arranged to demonstrate the upgraded rating.
Handover Documents Provided
Once the project is complete, we provide full handover documents, including warranties, certificates, and compliance paperwork for your records.
