Cut the bill your people feel most

Energy is the household bill employees notice every month. The Net Zero Home Scheme reduces it permanently, giving your people exclusive access to discounted solar, battery storage, air source heat pumps, charge point installation and smart energy technology through vetted nationwide installers.

It sits outside payroll, so there is nothing to deduct, reconcile or report. The scheme is free for the employer to offer and carries no financial risk.

Most of a workforce's carbon footprint sits outside the office. Supporting the home cuts your employees' bills and their emissions at the same time.

What are the benefits of The Net Zero Home Scheme?

  1. Real savings on bill-cutting technology

    Upfront cost is the barrier. Exclusive member pricing through vetted installers removes it, with a competitive quote and no hard sell.

  2. Free to offer, no payroll, no risk

    The scheme sits outside payroll. Nothing to deduct, reconcile or report, no cost to the business and no financial liability.

  3. Installers vetted before they reach your people

    Every installer is accredited, independently certified and covers England, Scotland and Wales, with a clear route if anything goes wrong.

  4. Renters included

    Plug-in solar brings the scheme to employees without a roof of their own, so the benefit reaches the whole workforce rather than homeowners only.

  5. Grants do the heavy lifting

    Heat pump quotes apply the government grant automatically, so employees see the real installed price rather than a headline figure.

  6. From the team behind The Electric Car Scheme

    Five years of sustainable employee benefits, thousands of employers served and a certified B Corp behind the scheme.

How it works in three steps

The employer signs a short scheme agreement and shares a comms pack. That is the whole setup, with no integration, no payroll deductions and no liability.

Employees enter the scheme's walled garden and get a live online quote for the services they want, at member-only pricing.

Trusted nationwide installers handle the work end to end, guaranteed and supported from survey to sign-off.

What employees can access

Solar panels and plug-in solar, so more of the energy a home uses is produced on site. Home battery storage to hold cheap and self-generated power for the hours that cost the most.

Air source heat pumps to take the largest single energy load in the home off fossil fuels, and charge point installation so an electric car charges overnight at the cheapest rate.

A group energy tariff is next, covering the running cost rather than the kit alone.

Why it belongs alongside salary sacrifice

Salary sacrifice covers what payroll can reach. The Net Zero Home Scheme reaches everything else, so employers can support the whole home rather than the driveway alone.

Together the schemes give one employer relationship access to cars, charging and the technology that decarbonises the house around them.

The Net Zero Home Scheme questions

What employers and employees ask before they take this scheme.

Ask us something else

What is The Net Zero Home Scheme?

It brings home measures together in one place, so an employee can plan solar, heating, charging and related upgrades as a single journey paid for through payroll, rather than arranging each one separately.

Where should a household start?

Usually with what the home wastes first. Insulation and controls reduce demand, then generation and low carbon heating cover what is left. A survey sets the order for a specific property rather than applying a standard package.

Do employees have to take everything at once?

No. Measures can be taken in stages as budgets and circumstances allow, with each stage paid for through payroll.
