These are often students and residents of apartment complexes. The ministry estimates that this concerns about 700,000 households.
Different amounts
The amounts to be applied for differ per living situation. For an independent residential unit, such as an apartment, with block gas or block heat, someone can apply for 786.45 euros for six months. For an apartment with block electricity, that is 731.13 euros. If it concerns non-self-contained housing units, such as student rooms for example, the resident will receive 329.28 euros or 307.63 euros respectively.
If a house has both block heating and electricity, the amounts are added up.
This is compensation for the first half of the year. The amounts for the second half will be announced later this year.
