You could get £150 off your electricity bill for winter 2022 to 2023 under the Warm Home Discount Scheme.
The money is not paid to you - it’s a one-off discount on your electricity bill, between October 2022 and March 2023.
You may be able to get the discount on your gas bill instead if your supplier provides you with both gas and electricity and you’re eligible. You can contact your supplier to find out more information.
There are different ways to qualify for the Warm Home Discount Scheme depending on where you live. You qualify if you either:
- Get the Guarantee Credit element of Pension Credit
- Are on a low income and meet your energy supplier’s criteria for the scheme
You can still qualify for the discount if you use a pre-pay or pay-as-you-go electricity meter and your electricity supplier can tell you how you’ll get the discount if you’re eligible, for example a voucher you can use to top up your meter.
