The Energy Company Obligation (ECO4) Scheme
runs from 2022-26. It allows local authorities to apply a broader
range of criteria to define fuel poor and vulnerable households
that can benefit from ECO4 funding for energy efficiency
improvements, known as ECO Flex. To participate in ECO Flex, local
authorities must publish a ‘Statement of Intent’ (SOI)
which specifies the criteria that will be used to define eligible
households. This report will consider the SOI for the Isle of Wight
Council to be used throughout ECO4.
