This is going up to £150 this year and they are replacing the Broader group with Core 2 which will mean you no longer need to apply

Means tested benefits are automatically classed as low income and then there is some sort of algorithm that will decide if the claimant pays high energy costs

I have always been able to claim as I have given figures. By the time they are looking at it my energy bills will be at least 23% of my total income possibly as much as 25% but now they will not looks at figures just the building type. Will have to wait and see I guess
