What our guidance does
It outlines:
- how we determine which suppliers are obligated
- how obligated suppliers can meet their obligations

- information on ECO measures.
The ECO3 scheme commenced on 3 December 2018 and runs until 31 March 2022. The documents below apply to all measures installed on or after 1 October.
