Sometimes, location or circumstances mean assistance is available for utility, technology and communication costs.  Generally, your local government authority is responsible for administering Concessions, Grants and Rebates.

If you believe you may be entitled to a concession or support for your utility expenses, contact your local government agency for more information and application forms.

It is important to note

Because Active Utilities embedded networks provision technology, communications and utilities differently to traditional suppliers, your bill will not reflect a concession.  You will need to receive your concession as a direct rebate from the administering authority.
