UK Government outlines Energy Bill Relief Scheme for businesses and third sector organisations
- Area of Work: The ALLIANCE
- Type: News Item
- Published: 28th September 2022

The scheme will apply to energy usage from 1 October 2022 to 31 March 2023 for all non-domestic energy users.
The UK Government have announced details of an Energy Bill Relief Scheme for businesses and third sector organisations.
The Energy Bill Relief Scheme will provide a discount on wholesale gas and electricity prices for all non-domestic customers, including all UK businesses, third sector organisations, and the public sector. This support will be equivalent to the Energy Price Guarantee (this link will take you away from our website) put in place for households.
It will apply to fixed contracts agreed on or after 1 April 2022, as well as to deemed, variable and flexible tariffs and contracts. It will apply to energy usage from 1 October 2022 to 31 March 2023, running for an initial 6 month period for all non-domestic energy users. The savings will be first seen in October bills, which are typically received in November.
Customers do not need to take action or apply to the scheme to access the support. Support (in the form of a p/kWh discount) will automatically be applied to bills.
