Government extends gas cylinder support and reinforces measure for transport companies
The government has extended the 'solidary gas cylinder' subsidy of 25 euros for vulnerable families until December 31, 2026. Additionally, it has created a temporary regime for passenger and freight transport companies to ensure they can receive support covering 70% of the extraordinary costs arising from fuel price increases.
Why it mattersIf you are a vulnerable household currently receiving the gas cylinder subsidy, you will continue to receive it through the end of the year; if you operate a transport business, you are now guaranteed eligibility for a 70% refund of fuel cost increases under the reinforced scheme.
