On BBC Radio 5 Live with Felicity Hannah, our director of policy Peter Smith discussing today's price cap change. He says that while prices are falling, they're still far higher than pre-crisis levels. He adds standing charges are increasing and energy debt is at record levels.
On BBC News (UK) now with Luxmy Gopal, our Chief Executive Adam Scorer on today's price cap fall. With customers still owing over £3 billion, he says we need to learn from the crisis. 'We need to accelerate people out of debt. We need interventions from government and the markets.'
The energy price cap drops today but the #EnergyCrisis isn't over. As Ben Saltmarsh tells BBC Radio Wales Breakfast, for many across the country, any saving will be wiped out by soaring energy debt. Total energy debt is now over £3 billion.
In Energy Live News with Dimitris Mavrokefalidis - ELN, our story showing that despite Monday's price cap fall, millions will be paying more on their energy bills. With energy debt at £3 billion, the #EnergyCrisis is not over. energylivenews.com/2024/03/30/uk-…
Polling by National Energy Action also showed #Welsh households were more likely to tell us they were in debt than other households across GB. And they were more likely to tell us they were in higher levels of debt than other households across GB. #EnergyCrisis
'The energy crisis is not over, especially for the poorest, who remain exposed to the greatest jeopardy.' Our Chief Executive Adam Scorer explains why Monday's price cap fall still leaves 6 million UK households in fuel poverty.
The price cap may fall 12% on Monday but typical bills are still over £400 higher than when the #EnergyCrisis began.
The #EnergyCrisis isn't over. The price cap may drop on Monday but it's a fraction compared to the amount households owe because of sky high bills.
