What is the Domestic RISE Scheme?

The Domestic RISE Scheme is a fully funded renewable energy programme designed to support homeowners, landlords, tenants and housing providers through the installation of Solar PV & Battery Storage systems with no upfront capital expenditure.

At E&F Retrofit Services Ltd, we operate as an approved Principal Contractor and managed installation delivery partner for the RISE Scheme, supporting the rollout of long-term renewable energy solutions across the UK.

The scheme has been designed to:

  • Reduce household electricity costs
  • Improve EPC ratings
  • Support Net Zero objectives
  • Reduce fuel poverty
  • Provide long-term energy security through professionally managed renewable energy systems

Operating nationwide across the UK, we work with homeowners, private landlords, social housing providers, commercial clients, and delivery partners.

What the RISE Scheme provides

The Domestic RISE Scheme is built around long-term renewable energy management and includes:

  • Fully funded Solar PV installations
  • Battery Storage systems
  • Remote monitoring and system management
  • Ongoing maintenance support
  • Replacement inverter and battery support where required
  • Long-term operational support for 25 years

The scheme operates with Zero CAPEX - meaning there are no upfront installation costs to the homeowner or landlord.

By combining renewable energy technology with long-term operational management, the scheme helps reduce electricity costs whilst improving long-term building performance.

Key benefits of the Domestic RISE Scheme

1. Fully Funded Renewable Energy Solutions

The scheme provides access to fully funded Solar PV systems, Battery Storage technology, and long-term renewable energy infrastructure without requiring upfront capital investment. This allows property owners and landlords to improve property performance without large installation costs.

2. Lower Electricity Bills & Improved Energy Efficiency

The scheme is designed to help reduce household electricity costs through on-site renewable energy generation, Battery Storage integration, and long-term energy management. Systems are designed to maximise generation performance and improve overall energy efficiency.

3. 25-Year Operational Support

All systems are supported through remote monitoring, ongoing maintenance management, performance optimisation, and replacement inverter/battery support where required. This helps ensure systems continue operating efficiently throughout the agreement period.

4. EPC Improvement & Sustainability Support

Renewable energy installations can help improve EPC ratings, support sustainability targets, reduce operational emissions, and improve long-term building performance. This is particularly valuable for landlords, housing providers, and property portfolios preparing for future energy regulations.

5. Long-Term Renewable Energy Management

The Domestic RISE Scheme is designed as a long-term energy management solution rather than a standalone installation programme. The scheme supports renewable energy adoption, long-term energy savings, reduced reliance on grid electricity, and improved operational sustainability.

At the end of the agreement term, ownership of the installed system transfers to the homeowner or landlord.
