Big fall in household energy bills predicted from April
Annual energy bills will fall by £117 from April due to government changes, forecasters have predicted.
Measures announced in the budget will mean a drop to £1,641 a year for a typical dual‑fuel household, according to research firm Cornwall Insight.
That would represent a 7% fall from the £1,758 being paid until the end of the financial year in March, under the energy price cap.
If the forecast proves correct, annual bills will be at their lowest since July 2024.
