The UK Government has issued an update on who will qualify for this year’s Warm Home Discount Scheme, following a change in the eligibility criteria and an increase of the payment from £140 to £150. The money is paid directly by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to energy suppliers and deducted from electricity bills.
The additional help with heating bills will be a welcome relief to eligible households following the announcement that the UK Government’s £2,500 Energy Price Guarantee will end in April and not in 2024 as originally planned. However, the £400 energy rebate will continue until March, providing discounts of £66/£67 on electricity bills this winter.
Warm Home Discount rule changes mean that not everyone will receive the support automatically - especially if you live in Scotland. The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy confirmed on Thursday that letters of automatic participation in the scheme will only be sent out to eligible Scottish households who are in receipt of Pension Credit Guarantee Credit - low-income households will need to check if they qualify directly with their energy supplier.
Energy Minister Graham Stuart MP, said: “From this winter, the Government will reform the Warm Home Discount scheme in England and Wales. The Government is writing to households who are eligible to receive a rebate automatically, as well as households who need to call a helpline to determine if they are eligible.
“There will be an online eligibility checker to help people understand if they may be eligible, and the Government is sharing information on the new scheme with energy suppliers and charities.
