Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero)
The Government is committed to ensuring energy bills are affordable for all consumers – that’s why we are running to deliver our clean power by 2030 mission. And whilst we make this transition, we will do everything we can to support households we know are finding it tough.
We will continue to deliver the Warm Home Discount which provides a £150 rebate off energy bills to 3.3 million eligible low-income households.
We are working with energy suppliers to ensure that they provide additional support to households that are struggling to pay their energy bills.
