You may be able to claim a government-issued Warm Home Discount, worth £150, to be claimed against your annual domestic electricity bill. The discount is generally payable between October and March and is paid for by energy providers participating in this initiative (including Ovo). If you reside in England or Wales, you do not need to make an application yourself – the Government will identify potential recipients and write to them between October and December 2025 to ask them for further details if required. In order to be considered for the payment, you or your partner must be listed on the electricity bill that was issued by Ovo on the relevant date (the "qualifying date") of 24th August 2025, or you/your partner must be receiving specified means-tested benefits e.g. Housing Benefit, Income Support or Universal Credit. Once the Government inform Ovo to proceed, they will then credit the amount onto your electricity account.
The method of claiming in Scotland differs somewhat, as a wider range of household types are eligible under the Scottish initiative. Even though some eligible households are automatically entitled because they were supplied by Ovo on the qualifying date, new applications for those households that are included within the broader eligibility criteria are currently being accepted. Like other benefit recipients, eligible individuals in Scotland should expect to hear from the Government between October to December 2025. However, anyone who does not receive a letter is encouraged to call the helpline prior to the deadline of 27th February 2026, to ensure their entitlement is assessed.
Apart from the Warm Home Discount scheme offered by Ovo, there are many ways you could save money on your domestic electricity prices using flexible monthly tariffs and public charging facilities for electric cars. With their Charge Any Time plans, Ovo combine both home and public charging into a single, fixed monthly cost. Using these plans could save you hundreds of pounds per year on your overall energy costs when compared to normal rates. Plans available offer a variety of home charging credits (which can be added to your electricity account), public charging vouchers and additional rewards depending upon which plan you choose. Credits are added to your account immediately if you are an EV owner, while vouchers can be used to charge your vehicle at one of thousands of public charging stations throughout Europe. If you exceed the number of miles allowed under your plan's mileage limit, you will be charged at your home tariff rate for any excess miles driven. Credits are designed to enable you to complete most of your daily travel.
Using OVO Charge Smart Charging App allows you to control when your car is charged to take advantage of lower priced green electricity periods and thereby also save money and reduce your carbon footprint. Customers preferring pay-as-you-go options, have seen a substantial increase in revised public charging rates. Nonetheless, Volvo customers that charge via the Volvo Cars app may continue to benefit from special discounted rates. Monthly plans are fully cancellable; therefore you may alter your plan(s) at any point in time and/or terminate your monthly plan, subject to paying fees only for the duration of service used.
Generally speaking, Ovo presents a variety of avenues through which you can minimize your domestic energy expenditure - particularly if you claim government assistance and utilize their adaptable EV charging systems. Be sure to always review whether you satisfy the requirements for each discount and program to achieve maximum cost reduction.
