One-time assistance for eligible home energy bills. The local provider determines eligibility and funding priority.
Before you start
- Availability · Shared CSD guidance — funding and priority
- Funding is limited and local providers prioritize the greatest need. Meeting an income limit does not guarantee assistance. [15]
- Eligibility & access · Shared CSD guidance — 2026 income reference
- Use CSD’s published 2026 monthly income reference. Income sources and other factors affect eligibility; ask the local provider to assess your household. [16]
- Eligibility & access · Shared CSD guidance — households larger than 10
- For households larger than 10, CSD says to add $192.21 for each additional person. Ask the provider about your household; local published tables can differ. [17]
Free energy-efficiency improvements for qualifying low-income households, under the programme’s assessment and funding rules.
Contact the local provider about disconnect notices or an energy-related crisis. A 24–48-hour notice is an example of a crisis; it is not a promised response time.
Before you start
- Availability · Shared CSD guidance — crisis assistance
- ECIP can address a disconnect notice, terminated service or another potentially life-threatening energy crisis. Contact the provider and utility; this description does not promise immediate help. [13]
Start with a written appeal to the local provider for denial, an untimely response or unsatisfactory performance; CSD describes a further written appeal if you disagree with the local decision.
Before you start
- Appeals · Shared CSD guidance — written appeal process
- Write to your local provider first. CSD says the local appeal must be reviewed and a decision rendered within 15 days after receipt. This is a decision period, not a filing deadline or benefit-payment promise. A further written CSD appeal is available. [14]
