Wholesale energy prices have risen sharply recently due to rising tensions in the Middle East, which could mean higher-than-expected bills this winter.
The latest forecasts predict energy costs could rise by almost £100 from October, pushing winter prices to their highest point since the 2022/23 energy crisis.1
While the government’s newly announced electricity VAT cut helps, saving most homes about £45 a year, it's unlikely to offset the predicted rate rise. Plus, it doesn't shave a penny off gas costs, which most of us rely on for heating.
