With the cost of living crisis continuing to hit households across the country, many will be looking for ways to help save on expenses. However, with some simple checks around your home, Brits could save as much as £767 a year on energy bills.
From October 2022, the price cap is forecast to jump to £3,549 per year for dual fuel in an average household. The rise means people could be losing up to £1,253 a year to the 'phantom load' in your home increasing up costs without you even realising it.
One of the biggest energy wasting culprits sucking up your money at home is the heating being left on while you're out at work - which could total a whopping £1,355 to an annual bill after October, a jump from £616 per year, Birmingham Live reports.
