Outgoing Eon boss calls for EBSS to be revived

Outgoing Eon chief executive Michael Lewis has called for the Energy Bills Support Scheme (EBSS) to be revived for the coming winter. Speaking to Utility Week during his last two weeks in the job, Lewis warned that “we're not out of the woods” and urged government to take action sooner rather than later. Lewis also backed Utility Week’s Action on Bills campaign which, among other things, is calling for more targeted support measures to be introduced next year.

Bill discount scheme to launch without portal

The energy discount scheme aimed at providing additional support for Energy and Trade Intensive Industries (ETIIs) and heat networks will launch next week without an application portal. Instead an Excel spreadsheet has been launched as an “interim solution”, however the government has admitted that it may not be fit for purpose for claimants looking to make larger applications. Make UK told Utility Week that the lack of an application portal could prove problematic if energy prices rise triggering a large number of claims.
