Household energy bills will rise from this Saturday as the latest price cap comes into effect.
Average household bills will be capped at £2,500 per household a year, but what consumers pay will vary depending on usage, meaning those that use less will pay less and vice versa.
Currently, the cap stands at £1,971 and was expected to nearly double to £3,549 from 1 October before Liz Truss introduced the limit as one of her first measures as Prime Minister.
Households will also receive a £400 discount on energy bills under the Energy Bills Support Scheme in October, a measure introduced by former Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak.
Bill payers will receive the one-off payment on their next six bills, reducing the total costs of monthly bills by £66 or £67 up until April.
Additional financial help is also available to pensioners and those with disabilities in the form of one-off payments.
