The energy assistance benefit payment level is based on a household's income and energy burden (energy burden is the proportion of a household's income used to pay for home heating). For example, households with the lowest income and the highest energy burden will receive the highest energy assistance benefit payment available. Households with children under age six years, the elderly (age 60 plus years), and/or disabled people may receive an additional energy assistance benefit amount.
