Around six million households will benefit from a £150 Warm Home Discount each winter through to the end of the decade. The scheme aims to provide financial support to eligible households to help with energy costs during colder months.
Energy Secretary Ed Miliband confirmed the continuation of the program, emphasizing its role in assisting vulnerable consumers.
**Why this matters**
The Warm Home Discount helps reduce the financial burden of heating bills for low-income and vulnerable households. With energy prices often rising during winter, this support can improve affordability and contribute to better living conditions for millions.
