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.
