I have multiple electricity accounts, will I receive more than one credit?

Yes, the government credit will be applied to each residential electricity account, provided each account meets the eligibility criteria and is not considered a 'low usage' account.

Per government guidelines, customers whose MPRN is flagged as low usage by ESB Networks are not eligible to receive this credit. Low usage means you have used <150kWh per quarter over 4 quarters in a row - 1 September 2023 to 31 August 2024. Low usage accounts are not eligible for the credit.

If you've a microgeneration account registered with ESB Networks for the payment period, you won't be on the low usage list and will therefore receive the credit.

Where the holder of a low usage electricity account meets one or more of the following criteria, they will be receive the credits:

• If you're a registered vulnerable customer
• if you're eligible to be registered as a vulnerable customer
• If you hold a hardship meter account.
