The recent announcement from Ofgem has brought unwelcome news: a 6.4% increase in the energy price cap starting April 2025. For the average UK household, this means an extra £111 per year, or roughly £9.25 a month. With rising wholesale prices driving this change, it's understandable to feel concerned. But there's a proactive way to navigate these costs: WattWise.
Understanding the Price Cap Impact
Let's break it down. The 6.4% increase translates to an average annual bill of £1,849 for dual fuel customers paying by Direct Debit. This is a significant jump, and regional variations in standing charges can further impact your bill. It's important to understand how these changes affect you.
