Warm Home Discount - what is it and am I eligible?
This government-run scheme helps you with a one-off rebate towards your energy costs. For 2020/21, the Warm Home Discount rebate is £140.
The scheme limits the number of rebates we can pay out so check if you're eligible and if you are, don’t delay – apply now.
Do I qualify for Warm Home Discount Scheme?
There are two Warm Home Discount groups. The 'Core Group', which qualifies automatically, and the 'Support Plus Group', which has a number of criteria. Find out below if you could benefit from the warm home grant this winter.
Qualifying for Warm Home Discount - Core Group
If you received the Guarantee Credit element of Pension Credit, on the qualifying date of 5 July 2020, you should receive a letter from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). Please read this letter carefully, as there may be action you need to take in order to receive the rebate.
If you qualify, we aim to provide your rebate by 28 February 2021.
Qualifying for Warm Home Discount - Support Plus Group
If you don't automatically qualify you can still apply for our Warm Home Discount - Support Plus. To be able to apply you'll need to meet certain eligibility criteria. There are six benefit combinations listed below that you'll need to meet as an EDF customer or as someone living with an existing EDF customer.
