Britain’s energy price cap just jumped again, adding £221 a year—or £18 a month—to the average household bill, now sitting at £1,862 annually for most direct debit users. Driven by global gas prices and Middle East tensions, this hike threatens vulnerable families heading into summer, with charities warning of rising risks of cold homes and potential push toward prepayment meters. Officials urge everyone to submit meter readings now to avoid overpaying—simple steps that could save cash. As winter looms, the pressure mounts for lasting solutions to keep energy affordable.
