The Energy Industry Voluntary Redress Scheme (Energy Redress Scheme) collects voluntary payments from companies that may have breached rules and redistributes the funding as grants to organisations that support vulnerable energy consumers. Energy Saving Trust manages the Energy Redress Scheme on behalf of Ofgem (the energy regulator) and administers distribution of the funds to registered charities in England, Scotland and Wales. 

The main priority of the Energy Redress Scheme is to support energy consumers in vulnerable situations. This includes people experiencing fuel poverty, health issues or other circumstances that mean they are disadvantaged when it comes to meeting their energy needs. 

The Energy Redress Scheme launched in Spring 2018, two phases and 25 funding rounds have now been completed.
