This app provides an application guide for the Energy Voucher program, which is available from May to June each year.
In 2025, energy vouchers will be issued at a higher rate than the previous year.

[What is an Energy Voucher?]
The Energy Voucher program provides vouchers to purchase energy for heating and cooling, helping vulnerable populations survive worry-free summers and winters. Recipients can choose to have their energy bills automatically deducted from their electricity, city gas, and district heating bills, or to freely pay for their preferred energy source using their National Happiness Card. Eligible households are those receiving basic livelihood security benefits under the National Basic Livelihood Security Act and meeting certain household member criteria*.

* If you or a household member falls under any of the following categories: seniors (65 years of age or older), infants (7 years of age or younger), people with disabilities, pregnant women, people with severe, rare, or incurable diseases, single-parent families, or families with children in foster care.
This year, the support amount and period will be expanded to provide more generous and user-friendly support.

This year, the amount will be increased to 367,000 won (53,000 won in summer and 314,000 won in winter).
