Real savings on the technology that cuts household bills
Home energy technology is the biggest lever most households have on their energy bills, and upfront cost is the biggest barrier. Your employees get exclusive pricing through installers we have vetted, with a competitive quote and no pressure to proceed.
Free to offer, no payroll, no financial risk
The scheme sits outside payroll entirely, so there is nothing to deduct, reconcile or report. No cost to offer it, and no financial liability for the business.
Installers vetted before they reach your people
Every installer is accredited and independently certified, with national coverage and a clear escalation route if anything goes wrong. Your employees get a quality-assured installation. You get the confidence to put your name to it.

FAQ
The answers before the sales call.
Quick answers to the questions HR teams ask most. If yours is not here, ask it on the demo and we will answer it straight.
Is this salary sacrifice?
No. The Net Zero Home Scheme sits entirely outside payroll. Employees buy directly from the installer at member pricing, so there is no deduction, no P11D and nothing for payroll or finance to process.
What is the liability if an installation goes wrong?
None sits with the employer. The contract is between the employee and the accredited installer, who carries the workmanship warranty, insurance-backed guarantee and consumer-code obligations. We manage the escalation on the employee's behalf if anything goes wrong.
Do renters qualify?
Yes, for parts of the scheme. Plug-in solar needs no permanent alteration to the property, so renters can take it up immediately. Solar, heat pumps and battery storage need the property owner's consent.
What data does the employer get?
Anonymised, aggregate reporting only: take-up numbers, installs completed and estimated carbon saved. Individual quotes, addresses and personal data are never shared with the employer.
What does it cost the business?
Nothing. There is no licence fee, no funding requirement and no minimum headcount. One short agreement gives your whole workforce access.
How long does launch take?
Typically a week. You sign the agreement, we send the comms pack with launch email, intranet copy and FAQ, and your people can request a live online quote the same day.
Will our people be cold-called or upsold?
No. Employees get a competitive quote online without the hard sell. They choose whether to proceed, and can walk away at any point before signing with the installer.
