Good morning E.ON Next Community 👋
You may have already seen it on TV or read about it in the news already but if not don't panic - here's everything you need to know about the Ofgem 1 January energy price cap 2025.
Ofgem has announced the latest price cap information this morning and the price cap is rising again by 1.2%. Please keep in mind that although the announcement was made this morning, the new rates won't be in effect until 1 January 2025 to 31 March 2025, so you won't see these prices on your bills until 2025.
The government introduced the price cap in 2019 to protect consumers from paying too much for their energy. It's set by the energy regulator Ofgem & it's reviewed four times a year.
The current price cap (1 October 2024 - 31 December 2024) sits at £1,717 however from 1 January 2025 it will change to £1,738.
Here's a breakdown:
🌟 Energy prices are rising, should I fix my tariff?
🌟 What's happening with your bills?
🌟 What is the energy price cap?
