UK Government's response to Ofgem's updates to the energy price cap level

A BEIS spokesperson said:  

“The Energy Price Guarantee is protecting consumers from soaring energy costs, meaning people’s bills will not rise in line with today’s Ofgem energy price cap increase.  

“A typical household in Great Britain will save around £900 this winter thanks to Government’s intervention to limit how much suppliers can charge per unit of energy, easing the burden on household incomes.   

“This comes on top of a £400 discount for all households on their energy bills this winter, and last week we confirmed the Energy Price Guarantee will continue to protect the public for another 12 months from April.”
