Boiler scrappage scheme - we explain how it works

The boiler scrappage scheme in Scotland is now closed as all 4,600 vouchers have been claimed. The scheme provided householders with £400 towards the cost of a new, high efficiency boiler, on a first come, first served basis.

The boiler scrappage scheme in England closed to new applicants in March as all of the 125,000 vouchers were allocated to homeowners.

The Welsh boiler scrappage scheme is still open and will provide up to 5000 homeowners (who are over 60 with working Band G rated boilers) with vouchers for £500 towards the cost of a replacement boiler or a microgeneration technology. For more information, please visit the Home Energy Efficiency Scheme (HEES) Wales website.
