Answer
The Alternative Fuel Payment will provide £100 to support households, who do not use mains gas for heating, with the rising price of fuel this winter in addition to a number of other government support schemes.
The Energy Bill Relief Scheme will provide a price reduction to ensure that all businesses and other non-domestic customers are protected from excessively high energy bills over the winter period. Eligible non-domestic customers do not need to take action or apply to the scheme – support will automatically be applied to bills.
