HHCRO (Home Heating Cost Reduction Obligation) Eligibility

Under the HHCRO scheme, larger energy suppliers are obligated to provide funding for energy efficiency measures in qualifying households. These measures are aimed at reducing the cost of heating homes and improving energy efficiency.

Eligibility for funding through HHCRO is based on whether any person living in the dwelling receives one or more of the following qualifying benefits:

• come based Jobseekers Allowance (JSA)
• 2) Income related Employment and Support Allowance (ESA)
• 3) Income Support (IS)
• 4) Pension Credit Guarantee Credit (PCGC)
• 5) Working Tax Credit (WTC)
• 6) Child Tax Credit (CTC)
• 7) Universal Credit (UC)
• 8) Housing Benefit
• 9) Pension Credit Savings Credit (PCSC)

However, if any person living in the dwelling does not receive any of the above qualifying benefits, the occupier may still be able to qualify for energy efficient measures through the flexible eligibility scheme.
