Energy Social Bonus: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how the Energy Social Bonus provides automatic discounts on your electricity and gas bills based on your household income status.
The Energy Social Bonus is a government program designed to lower the cost of electricity and gas for households facing financial hardship.
Who it's for
This support is available to families with a low ISEE (an indicator used to measure economic necessity) below a certain threshold, as well as large families.
What you get
You receive an automatic discount applied directly to your electricity and gas bills to help reduce your monthly energy expenses.
What it costs you
There is no application fee. If you have already filed your ISEE documentation, you do not need to do anything to request this benefit.
The catch to know
The discount only applies to the energy used at your primary residence; it cannot be used for secondary homes or other properties.
How to apply
- Ensure your ISEE documentation is updated and filed with the relevant authorities.
- Check your electricity and gas bills for the applied discount.
- Contact your energy provider if you believe you qualify but do not see the reduction.
