Financial assistance for gas and electricity bills is available through concessions and rebates for eligible low-income households. These programs vary by state and territory. Eligibility often depends on factors like holding a concession card, needing life-saving medical equipment, age, and being the account holder. Separate concessions may exist for gas and electricity depending on location and individual circumstances. Applying for some concessions requires contacting your energy retailer. While multiple concessions can be received, each can only be applied to a single account per household.
Energy bill rebates are mainly for financially vulnerable customers needing help with payments. Eligibility criteria differ by state, retailer, and the specific rebate, but a concession card is usually necessary. Nationally, rebates typically apply only to your main residence, and you must be the primary account holder.
