Ofgem recently announced that energy bills will fall by 7.2 per cent from the start of next month, but remain around 40 per cent higher than pre-gas crisis levels. The sector regulator confirmed that annual energy bills for millions of households on the standard tariff, with typical average usage, will drop from £1,690 to £1,568 from July 1 - a saving of £122 over the coming year.
He explained: “At one point, when summer came around, the cost of energy would be less of a distressing thought for Brits as we could simply turn off the heating to save. But thanks to the energy crisis combined with the cost of living, that is a luxury not many of us can afford.” Top Money Stories Today Close your curtains Andrai said: “Keep your blinds and curtains closed during the daytime to stop the sun from heating each room. Additionally, walls that face south and west receive the most intense heat from the sun, so it is particularly important to make sure curtains or blinds cover these windows and they remain closed during the day.”
Switch off standby appliances Andrai explained: “Leaving appliances on standby can consume a significant amount of energy. Merely being plugged in causes the wiring to generate heat which can increase the energy bill but you can minimise this by simply unplugging electronics that are not in use. For convenience, consider investing in a standby saver or smart plug, which allows you to turn off multiple appliances simultaneously.
