Energy bills may finally be dropping but bosses at the UK’s largest energy suppliers were paid enough last year to power 23,000 homes for an entire year, it can be revealed.
Executives, board members and other high-level employees of the ‘Big Six’ gas and electric companies received £58m in salaries, bonuses and fees, analysis of their 2022 accounts shows. The average annual household energy bill up until the end of June was £2,500.
