Energy bills have been forecast to increase even more than previously expected this winter.
New data from energy analysts Cornwall Insight has revealed bills are predicted to hit around £3,582 each year for an average household starting in October — higher than the previous prediction of £3,359.
This is set to rise even further in January to £4,266, before increasing again in April to £4,427. As reported by the Liverpool ECHO, previous estimates for the April cap were around £3,729 — a rise of around £650.
