Warm Home Discount Scheme

The Warm Home Discount Scheme provides a one-off £140 discount on your electricity bill if the following apply:

  • your supplier was part of the scheme
  • your name (or your partner’s) was on the bill
  • you were getting the Guarantee Credit element of Pension Credit (even if you get Savings Credit as well)

The discount won’t affect your Cold Weather Payment or Winter Fuel Payment

You may be able to apply directly to your electricity supplier for help if you don’t get the Guarantee Credit element of Pension Credit but:

  • you’re on a low income
  • you get certain means-tested benefits
