Ofgem Price Cap to give temporary relief, but not for long - London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com
Briefly

From October the energy Price Cap will drop by around 1%, reducing the average household bill by about £20 to roughly £1,700 a year. The decrease reflects stable wholesale energy prices and provides a modest easing for households heading into winter after years of rising costs. Despite the reduction, bills remain substantially higher than before the energy crisis and continued support is being expanded through the Warm Home Discount to help a further 2.7 million homes. Prices are expected to remain steady into January. A small annual increase of about £25 is anticipated thereafter to fund vital upgrades to the UK's energy infrastructure and to support increased renewable energy deployment.
