Ministers have confirmed that millions of households will continue receiving the £150 Warm Home Discount on their energy bills each winter through to 2030/31.
The confirmation means around six million eligible households across the UK will remain covered by the scheme for the rest of the decade.
According to the Government, extending the programme is intended to give families greater certainty at a time when energy costs remain a significant pressure.
Alongside the extension, ministers have confirmed that average household energy bills are expected to fall by £150 from April, following the removal of costs linked to the Energy Company Obligation scheme.
Ministers maintain that the Warm Home Discount will remain a central pillar of energy bill support through to 2030/31.
