Energy Company Obligation (ECO) 3 help to heat flexible eligibility - Joint Statement of Intent
Referrals
Referrals are welcome from the broader Tees Valley Partnership for potential households to benefit from the Warm Homes Fund and requiring Eco 3 Flex. These referrals will ultimately be referred to the appointed installer (Marshall & McCourt) delivering the Warm Homes/ECO 3 Flex measures for final eligibility check. Organisation's passing on referrals via this route will include:
- Stockton & District Advice & Information Service
- Middlesbrough Environment City
- Darlington CAB
- Hartlepool CAB
- Redcar & Cleveland CAB
- Cleveland Fire Brigade
Tees Valley Council's that are signatories to this SOI are working to enhance the referrals process and joint working with partner agencies to maximise the number of vulnerable fuel poor households that can be assisted by the Warm Homes Fund and Eco3 Flexible Eligibility. On receipt of a referral, Marshall & McCourt will contact the household and begin the process of establishing eligibility and which measures are available that the household would like to have undertaken. When a proposal has been developed for a specific case, Marshall & McCourt will submit the case to the Environment Policy Team within Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council who will make the decision on whether the case is eligible to be included in the next declaration. Marshall & McCourt will liaise with Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council and ECO funder around the eligibility and measures that are proposed to be installed.
