Semiconductor and Electronic Parts Manufacturing is a cornerstone of the global technology industry, encompassing the design, fabrication, and assembly of components that power modern electronic devices. This sector produces essential parts such as integrated circuits (ICs), transistors, diodes, sensors, capacitors, and resistors—each playing a critical role in enabling computing, communication, automation, and connectivity. The manufacturing process involves advanced technologies including photolithography, wafer fabrication, and precision assembly, often carried out in cleanroom environments to ensure high quality and reliability. As industries such as artificial intelligence (AI), 5G, electric vehicles (EVs), and the Internet of Things (IoT) expand, demand for semiconductors and electronic parts continues to surge. Governments and corporations worldwide are investing heavily in local semiconductor production to strengthen supply chains and reduce dependence on imports. With innovations in materials, miniaturization, and energy efficiency, the semiconductor and electronic parts manufacturing industry remains a driving force behind global digital transformation and technological advancement.

Understanding eligibility for ECO4 Grants is crucial before applying. Typically, households qualify if they:
Receive means-tested benefits
Live in properties with EPC ratings D, E, F, or G
Have low income under LA Flex rules
Private tenants may also qualify with landlord consent. ECO4 prioritises energy-inefficient homes, ensuring support reaches those most in need.
If you’re unsure about eligibility, a free assessment can quickly determine whether you qualify for ECO4 support.
