The price cap has been raised by 12 - 13%, so hopefully we won't see costs running sky high for domestic usage:

No it’s just scare mongering, but it is going to mean bigger energy bills for all and that is never a good thing.

All very worrying. Feel sorry for young families struggling with bills.

Did anyone else hear on the radio this morning re runs of the news broadcasts from the 70's relating to power cuts and three day weeks in offices and factories. Are they being predicted for the coming winter due to the energy crisis? Fingers crossed that is not the case. Certainly seems like it is going to be a 'winter of discontent'
