The government is giving households across Great Britain a £400 discount on their energy bills to help with rising energy prices.

This will be paid in six monthly instalments from October 2023 until March 2023. How you get your discount depends on how you pay for your energy.

We've created a handy guide to explain how the scheme works in more detail, including how and when you'll get your discount.
