star this property answer text Whether VAT applies to the payment made under the Energy Bills Support Scheme is determined by VAT legislation. Under the Scheme, the government is paying £400 of the domestic customer’s energy bills. Payments made under the scheme into the customers energy account are regarded as third-party payments from the government. Energy suppliers are required to account for VAT at the reduced rate of five percent under the normal rules, as the payment is made for a taxable supply of energy. There are no plans to review the VAT legislation. more like this
