For a product to be eligible for ECAs it must meet specific energy saving eligibility criteria. There are several different technology categories included on the ECA scheme, many of which are sub-divided into sub-technology categories, as shown in the dropdown lists below.
The eligibility criteria for each category is reviewed each year and updated to reflect technological and market developments. New technology categories can be added to the scheme each year following approval by the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC), Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) and the Treasury.
As well as determining eligibility for an ECA, the criteria can be used by businesses and manufacturers to enhance specifications and aid product development.
The current eligibility criteria are published in full here or specific technology area criteria (and claim values) can be selected using the drop down menu below.
