Households are looking for ways to cut back on using electrical appliances as average energy bills are soon set to hit £3,549 a year.
Energy regulator Ofgem has announced that its price cap will rise to £3,549 in October for those on default tariffs paying by direct debit - up from the current figure of £1,971 and an 80% increase.
Standard credit customers - so where you pay once you've received your bill - will see their price cap rise from £2,100 to £3,764.
