Scottish Power Hardship Fund

If you’re on a lower income and are struggling to pay your energy bills, you may be eligible for the ScottishPower Hardship Fund.

How the Hardship Fund can help

Because some customers have difficulties paying their bills due to low income or other circumstances, ScottishPower has a Hardship Fund to help them get their energy payments under control. The Fund can help by clearing or reducing arrears by crediting a customer’s ScottishPower energy account.
