New research by Compare Boiler Quotes has used the latest statistics from the Scottish Government’s Energy Statistics Hub to analyse electricity and gas costs from every local authority across Scotland, to identify the areas with the most and least expensive bills.
Their findings discovered that Argyll and Bute has the highest energy bills in Scotland and will be worst affected by the 54 per cent price hike, set to hit millions of homes across the country from Friday, April 1.
Households in Argyll and Bute pay an average of £1,842 per year in total for gas and electricity bills, which is £729 more than the average energy user living in Glasgow where combined annual bills are £1,113.
