Low income, high energy bill

The Emergency Fund looks at how high the bill for gas, heat and electricity is. And to the income of the adults in a household. If the difference is too large, the energy supplier will reduce part of the energy bill for a period of 6 months.
The Temporary Emergency Fund is a foundation that is paid for by various energy suppliers and the central government.
