Rural Energy Voucher: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how low-income households in rural areas can access vouchers for heating oil, electricity, or gas through this support scheme.

The Rural Energy Voucher is a support program designed to help households in countryside areas manage their heating and energy costs.

Who it's for

This scheme is specifically for households living in rural areas that meet low-income requirements.

What you get

You will receive vouchers that can be used to pay for essential energy needs, such as heating oil, electricity, or gas, during the winter months.

What it costs you

There is no direct monetary cost to receive the voucher, but you must visit your local community center, such as an Eup or Myeon office, to complete the application process.

The catch to know

The amount provided through the voucher is a fixed value, which means it may not be enough to cover all your energy expenses if you experience an exceptionally cold winter.

How to apply

  1. Visit your local community center (Eup/Myeon office).
  2. Submit your application for the energy voucher.
  3. Follow the instructions provided by the office to complete your registration.
