A couple of weeks ago I posted about the energy price cap which was set to lead to UK domestic energy costs climbing to £3500 per year. On Thursday last week the government published a new cap mechanism that will limit this to £2500. So time to update the numbers....

2,900 KWH of Electricity at 34p (was to be 52p) per KWH and 12,000 KWH of gas at 10p (was to be 15p) per KWH. Standing charges to be £170 for elec and £104 for gas. This gives a total of £2460, plus VAT at 5% is £2583. What do you think?
