Energy voucher: better automatic identification of recipients
Automatic identification of households eligible for the 'chèque énergie' (energy voucher) would be expanded through new data matching: email addresses and phone numbers from grid operators and electricity suppliers. The Government expects about 100,000 additional recipients, after a drop from 5.7 million (2024) to 4.2 million (2025) linked to the 2025 reform.
