Energy check: what will change in 2025?

Towards a major change in 2025 for the energy check. This aid launched in 2018 by the government allowed more than 5 million French people to benefit from help with their energy costs (electricity and gas bill, purchase of firewood, etc.). Its amount varied from 48 to 277 € depending on household and income.

If it was previously paid automatically in April, this will no longer be the case in 2025reports RMC. Indeed, the abolition of the housing tax has changed the situation. The latter “ allowed organizations to clearly identify the composition of housing “, noted Free Middaywhich is no longer the case now.

Article 60 of the draft budget presented last week goes in this direction by explaining that it will now be necessary to go through an online platform to make the request. This will affect around 1 million people. For households already benefiting from the energy check, it will still be sent automatically.
