The Netherlands, explained

Noodfonds Energie

The Noodfonds Energie is the Dutch government's energy emergency fund, which contributes to the energy costs of households whose energy bill is too high for their income. It is not an ongoing benefit: it opens for applications only during set periods. Eligibility depends on household income and energy costs, so people who use very little energy may not qualify.
