The Warm Home Discount is a supplier obligation scheme, and energy suppliers participating in the scheme are required to provide rebates from energy bills to eligible households. Through data matching, the majority of core group rebates are provided automatically, without the household having to take any action. For that reason, only the named bill payer can receive a rebate.
