Following an extreme spike in prices back in October 2021, around 6 million households are still experiencing a profound impact, according to National Energy Action.
Due to the new price cap effective from April 01, households will now be paying an average of 12% less on their energy bills, with the typical annual bill sitting at £1,690.
But this is still over £400 more expensive compared to October 2021, well above pre-pandemic levels, and those most as risk are still left to consider whether to heat or eat.
