ECO Providers, based in the heart of the Ribble Valley, is celebrating a breakthrough year in 2025—marked by nationwide growth, sustainability innovation, and a series of prestigious award shortlists.

Having proudly taken home Scale-Up Business of the Year at the BIBAs 2024, the company is now up for multiple accolades this year, including:

  • Business of the Year
  • Medium Business of the Year
  • Low Carbon Business of the Year
  • Apprentice Team of the Year
    From humble Lancashire roots to national impact, ECO Providers continues to lead the way in energy efficiency, low-carbon housing, and renewable energy solutions.

Beyond Retrofit: Full-Service Green Energy solutions

While ECO Providers is well known for delivering free energy-saving home upgrades under schemes like ECO4 and the Great British Insulation Scheme, the business has evolved into much more than just a retrofit specialist.

Private Solar Installations

Homeowners across the UK are now turning to ECO Providers for bespoke solar panel systems designed to maximise energy independence. Whether it’s rooftop panels or the latest Tesla Powerwall 3 storage solutions, the company delivers high-quality, future-ready installations—backed by expert guidance and full MCS certification.

Commercial solar and sustainability

The company’s commercial solar division is also on the rise, working with businesses, schools, and landlords to cut operational energy costs and carbon footprints. From warehouses to office buildings, ECO Providers provides tailored systems that unlock long-term savings and support green business goals.

Creating lasting impact in the social housing sector

Working closely with local councils, housing associations, and energy companies, ECO Providers is transforming thousands of social housing properties into warmer, more efficient, and more sustainable homes.

Their experience in navigating funding schemes, compliance, and tenant communication makes them a trusted delivery partner—especially for councils looking to meet net-zero housing targets.

The company is proud to be at the forefront of improving living conditions for the UK’s most vulnerable households, while easing the burden of fuel poverty.

Built from the Ground Up: Scaffolding Division Adds Strength

As part of its growth journey, ECO Providers has launched its own in-house scaffolding division, giving the company complete control over project timelines, site safety, and costs.

This added capability allows for faster installs, higher safety standards, and even greater efficiency across all types of retrofit, solar, and insulation work. It’s a strategic move that positions ECO Providers as a fully self-sufficient delivery partner.

Powered by people: Over 100 strong and growing

ECO Providers now proudly employs over 100 staff—including skilled engineers, customer service teams, surveyors, coordinators, and a growing number of apprentices.

The business continues to invest in talent, systems, and culture. Initiatives like Fizz Fridays, wellness sessions, therapy dogs, Employee of the Month awards, and a genuinely people-first workplace have helped fuel an outstanding retention rate and a deeply motivated team.

Award-Winning excellence at the BIBAs 2024

Winning Scale-Up Business of the Year at the 2024 BIBAs—hosted at the Blackpool Tower Ballroom—was a major moment for the business. With entertainment from Bad Boys on the Block, it was a night of fun, celebration, and well-deserved recognition.

“Receiving the award in our first ever BIBAs entry was incredible,” said Tom, Managing Director of ECO Providers. “To now be shortlisted again in multiple categories for 2025 is a true honour—and a credit to our phenomenal team.”

ECO Providers continues to deliver fully funded upgrades through government-backed schemes like ECO4 and the Great British Insulation Scheme. You or someone you know may be eligible for insulation, heating systems, or even solar—completely free.

They also offer tailored solar solutions for both homes and businesses.
