Great news for households in Western Australia! The state's government is rolling out the second part of its electricity subsidy, which means every household will receive a $350 discount on their next power bill. This installment is part of the $700 household electricity credit that was announced earlier. Starting this weekend, the $350 credit will be applied to bills from Synergy and Horizon, with the first installment being applied on December 7.
According to the WA government, households with a direct billing account with Synergy or Horizon Power don't need to do anything. The credit will automatically be applied to their next bill after today. This is great news for those who have been struggling to manage their electricity bills. But what about those who don't have an account with Synergy or Horizon Power? Well, they can still get assistance through RevenueWA. The government has set a deadline of January 31, 2025 for applications to be submitted.
But that's not all! The WA government is also offering additional support for households that need it. This includes the Energy Assistance Payment and the Dependent Child Rebate. These initiatives aim to provide further relief for those who are facing financial difficulties. It's heartwarming to see the government taking steps to help its citizens during these tough times.
It's important to note that the rebate is just one of the many rebates and concessions available from state and territory governments across Australia. So if you're struggling with your power bills, make sure to do some research and see what other options are available to you.
