Government confirms how £100 heating oil payment will be made

14/10/2022

The government confirmed on Wednesday how the Alternative Fuel Payment Scheme for domestic heating oil users will be administered, with the payment being made through electricity bills rather than fuel distributors.

The smaller level of support for oil heating reflects how gas prices have risen more sharply than oil in the last year and the £100 will be delivered as a top-up to the £400 Energy Bills Support payment, which is going to all UK households.

The Government has announced that the payment will be made this ‘winter’ but there is no further information on timing. Therefore we recommend that customers do not delay ordering if they need heating oil.
