For many this time of year is 'the most magical of all' but behind the 'white Christmas' and festive celebrations a lot of households are expected to struggle with rising energy costs. As snow and ice hit many parts of the UK the cost of heating homes is becoming a lot more expensive as the energy price cap rises, yet again.
Set out by energy regulator Ofgem, the price cap is set to rise to an annual level of £4,279 in the new year (January 2023), this is the average estimated cost for households on a basic supplier tariff. This comes to just over £356.58, nearly £200 more than the average monthly cost this time last year.
