Every household in the country is set to have €100 knocked off their first energy bill of 2022.
The government is planning the move to ease the financial burden as a result of rising energy prices.
It will cover the first two months of the year, and will be deducted from the bill when it's issued in March.
Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe says they're looking at ways to reduce energy bills over the coming months.
"Yes we are looking at some options in relation to doing something. particularly in relation to bills at the end of this year and start of next year", he says.
