602,000 applications for energy cost compensation have already been submitted. All households should now have the corresponding form.
As expected, energy cost equalization should be a complete success: more than 602,000 applications have been submitted so far, Finance Minister Magnus Brunner (ÖVP) said: “We have again implemented a precise aid to cope with the high energy prices for households. As mentioned, every household in the main home (up to an annual income of 55,000 euros for one person or up to 110,000 euros for more people) is entitled to a credit of 150 euros, which the relevant electricity supplier must then deduct from the annual statement. Finance and Environment, this solution must be legally secure and unbureaucratic.
Forms for four million households
The applications submitted so far correspond to an allowance of 90 million euros. By Saturday, all four million households should have received the necessary forms in the mail.
