Fuel Insecurity Fund

Details of how the expanded Fuel Insecurity Fund will be used to help those who need it most through new and existing services have now been revealed. The First Minister announced in March that the Fund will be tripled to £30 million this year.

Up to £30 million will be made available through the Fuel Insecurity Fund next year to help households who are at risk of self-rationing or self-disconnecting their energy use, first minister Humza Yousaf has announced.

Thousands of vulnerable households will be supported by the continuation of the Scottish Government’s uprated £20 million Fuel Insecurity Fund.
