Residents of the Flemish Region on modest incomes that are entitled to the social tariff for their gas and electricity can currently also claim for a discount grant of 250 euro if they purchase an energy efficient domestic appliance. However, from the end of next month the social tariff that was extended to cover a greater number of households during the energy crisis will be scaled back and will only cover the poorest households again from the end of June.

Discount grant vouchers for energy-efficient appliances to be scrapped on 30 June
Published:
The discount grant voucher will also be scrapped from 30 June and the Flemish Energy and Climate Agency is now calling on those that are currently entitled to the voucher that can be used to purchase an energy efficient appliance from the vendor of their choice to apply while they still can. The vouchers are valid for two years. They can be used to purchase a freezer or fridge with energy label D or better, a washing machine that has an energy label C or better or a tumble dryer with an energy performance label A++ or better.
Those that are entitled to the discount vouchers can apply to up to 4 per household. Applications can be made in writing or via the website of the grid management company Fluvius (in Dutch and French).
