<p>Energy suppliers participating in the Warm Home Discount this year (2015/16) have
been given the voluntary option to provide a rebate to mobile home residents who meet
the qualifying benefit as part of the Industry Initiatives section of the scheme.
This scheme called the Park Homes Warm Home Discount pilot scheme is funded by obligated
energy suppliers in the scheme and is open to permanent park home residents in England,
Scotland or Wales. Residents on a Park Home site who pay for their electricity through
their park site owner and meet one of the qualifying eligibility criteria can apply.
If successful, residents will receive a one-off rebate of £140 towards their electricity
bill.</p><p>The pilot scheme opened in November and is only open for a limited period
and once a certain number of applications have been received and are successful, the
pilot scheme will close. The pilot is currently expected to deliver just over 1000
rebates. This translates to just over £140,000 of support being delivered before the
31st March 2016.</p>
