About this service

The Low Income Energy Programs ensure residents have an opportunity to maintain housing in periods of crisis when presented with a utility disconnection notice. Assistance could be through financial grants funded by utility companies or advocacy with utility companies.

The assistance is only available if you are facing service disconnection. This program is not meant to provide you with ongoing help to pay your bills.

Documents you need to bring to your appointment:

Identification of each of the members of the household

Current electricity and gas bills

Your disconnection notice

A copy of a rental contract, lease or mortgage documents

Proof of household income cheque stub, employment letter, income tax return for adult members of household
