To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what steps he is taking to support households on heat networks who are not covered by the domestic price cap.
Graham Stuart
Minister of State (Minister for Climate)
The Government has been clear that domestic heat network consumers should expect the same level of support as other domestic energy consumers
Heat network consumers with domestic electricity contracts will receive capped electricity prices through the Energy Price Guarantee, credits of £400 on their electricity Bills through the Energy Bills Support Scheme, reduced heat prices via the Energy Bill Relief Scheme and, in addition, will receive £100 delivered through the Alternative Fuels Payment to be established by the Energy Prices Bill. Details of support can be found here.
