"We’re pleased to offer free cavity wall insulation to people across Britain. Improving the fabric of the nation’s aging housing stock is crucial in helping to ensure people stay warm and well all year round, while also contributing to lower energy use and bills. "

- Chris Lovatt, Chief Operating Officer of E.ON UK Energy Solutions

E.ON has today launched the offer of free cavity wall insulation to eligible households across the country as part of the Great British Insulation Scheme.

The offer of free insulation is available to people who meet certain eligibility criteria, including their home’s Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) ratings and council tax banding and that they, or someone they live with, is on certain qualifying benefits. There are offers available for E.ON Next energy customers in addition to people not supplied by E.ON Next.

Chris Lovatt, Chief Operating Officer for E.ON UK Energy Solutions, said: “We’re always looking for ways to help our customers become more sustainable and every measure we install brings us one step closer to achieving the UK’s net zero target.

“We’re pleased to offer free cavity wall insulation to people across Britain. Improving the fabric of the nation’s aging housing stock is crucial in helping to ensure people stay warm and well all year round, while also contributing to lower energy use and bills. This scheme further reinforces the need to act now to take climate action, enabling many people to help futureproof the energy efficiency of their homes for free.”
