The Government is committed to tackling fuel poverty and supporting low income and vulnerable households to heat their homes at an affordable cost. In the Energy White Paper published in December 2020, the Government committed to consult on the Warm Home Discount scheme up to 2025/26. The Government will increase the total spending to £475 million per year (in 2020 prices).
