Energy firm SSE has announced a 42.7% price hike on its gas - to come into effect from July 1.
The company blamed “significant pressure” on global energy markets.
This tariff change means a typical household customer will see an average increase equivalent to around £1.02 per day. The price change comes into effect from 1 July 2022 and will apply to all domestic and small business customers supplied by SSE Airtricity, they added.
