It has been announced by Ofgem that there will be a drop to its energy price cap from the current £3,280 per year to £2,074 for the average household - including those in Scotland.
The change will come into force from July 1 of this year due to falling wholesale energy prices.
The lower cap will replace the Government’s Energy Price Guarantee (EPG), which currently limits the typical household energy bill to around £2,500, meaning the typical annual bill will fall by around £426.
