Energy Bills to See Biggest Rise in Four Years
Energy bills in Great Britain are set to rise significantly in January, with the typical household facing an annual gas and electricity bill of £1,999. This is the biggest quarterly increase since January 2023, driven by escalating tensions in the Middle East and low gas storage levels in Europe. Experts predict a 16% increase in the energy cap, taking the average dual-fuel bill to nearly £2,000. Households are advised to take practical steps to mitigate the price shock.41 sourcesSee all sources
