"Cornwall Insight said it now expects annual bills to equate to £4,347.69 from April to June, with gas at £2,286.70 and electricity at £2,060.99.
The consultancy predicts the price cap easing slightly to £3,697 in the July to September quarter, and then £3,722 from next October until the end of 2023. That is still far higher than the £1,277 annual bills stood at a year ago."

Originally posted by AtW View Post“He said a Treasury-led taskforce was now looking at how support could be better targeted from April.

He warned that energy suppliers generally knew very little about the incomes of their customers, making it difficult to means-test support without embarking on a “large IT project”.
