What is the Boiler Upgrade Scheme?
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme is a UK government-funded scheme for homes and businesses in England and Wales. It’s designed to provide financial support for homeowners and small businesses to pay for and install low-carbon heating systems to replace fossil fuel heating systems.
The scheme is installer‑led, so you contact an MCS‑certified installer – like Outlook Energy Solutions. Our team can apply for the BUS grant on your behalf.

This scheme is part of a wider plan to decarbonise heating in buildings and support the move away from gas and oil.
How much funding can I receive?

This particular scheme has been put in place by the UK government for property and business owners in England and Wales. It can be used for homes and small, non-domestic buildings that have a heating capability of 5 kWth.
What are the benefits of the Boiler Upgrade Scheme in Shropshire?
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme provides UK households with a wide range of benefits, including a discount on energy efficiency improvements.
Reduced energy costs
Energy-efficient installations can lower your energy bills. A new system is much more efficient than an old gas boiler because it doesn’t waste as much energy when heating your home, thus reducing your monthly bills.
Discount on home-improvement measures
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers thousands of pounds towards the cost of energy-efficient home installations, allowing you to improve the energy performance of your home at a massive discount.
Smaller carbon footprint
Low-carbon heating systems like air source heat pumps don’t waste as much energy as older, fossil fuel heating systems. This ensures your home produces less carbon emissions, helping the environment.
Improved Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating
By raising the efficiency of your home, you’re improving your EPC rating. This is helpful if you ever want to sell your home years later. It will be more appealing than other properties on the market thanks to a higher EPC rating.
