WHAT IS THE GREAT BRITISH INSULATION SCHEME?

GBIS

ABOUT GBIS

The Great British Insulation Scheme, often referred to as GBIS, is a relatively new Government energy efficiency scheme which is to be administered by Ofgem. The purpose of the scheme is to improve the least energy-efficient homes in the UK in order to help reduce energy bills and tackle 'fuel poverty'.

It is a scheme that complements the Government's already popular Energy Company Obligation (ECO4) scheme, however, there is one key difference.

Whilst the ECO4 scheme could look at a house as a whole to deliver multiple measures to make it more energy efficient, the GBIS scheme generally looks at delivering single insulation measures instead.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO APPLY?

You might get support if your home:

  • has an energy performance certificate (EPC) of D to G.
  • is in Council Tax bands A-D in England or A-E in Scotland or Wales.

No benefit? No problem. Unlike other schemes, you do not need to be in receipt of a benefit. 

Your living situation

You can be a homeowner, landlord or tenant (either renting privately or from a housing association).

If you’re a tenant, speak to your landlord before you apply. You’ll need their permission before any insulation can be installed.
