英国财政大臣约翰·希利正筹划在本月预算案中实施重大措施，以帮助低收入家庭应对不断上升的能源成本。1政府计划投入超过10亿英镑，主要目的是为领取特定福利的家庭增加能源折扣。1在这一背景下，能源价格预计将在1月上升约442英镑，这一涨幅将完全抵消此前增值税减免带来的收益。1
作为缓解措施的一部分，政府考虑将暖居折扣从150英镑增加100英镑。1能源部长米亚塔·法恩布勒赫正推动移除所有征税的方案，这一方案的成本约为32亿英镑。1此外，政府还在考虑在预算案后推进建立社会关税制度或阶梯式关税制度等改革措施。1
Chancellor John Healey is considering a substantial government intervention in this month's budget to support lower-income households facing mounting energy costs.1 The government plans to invest over 1 billion pounds, with funds directed primarily toward increasing energy discounts for families receiving certain benefits.1 Energy prices are projected to rise by approximately 442 pounds in January, a figure that would completely offset the impact of value-added tax reductions.1
The proposed measures include expanding the Warm Home Discount scheme, with consideration given to increasing the current support by 100 pounds, bringing it to 250 pounds.1 Beyond immediate relief, the energy sector is advancing more comprehensive reform options, including the establishment of a social tariff system or tiered tariff structure.1 Energy Minister Miatta Fahnbulleh has been pushing for the removal of all energy taxes, an approach that would carry an estimated cost of approximately 3.2 billion pounds.1 These broader reforms are expected to be pursued following the budget announcement.1
