Making smart choices
Although an annual price cap of £2,500 has been announced for two years, this is still a significant increase on last winter.
A gas boiler has the biggest impact on bills and buyers may look to reduce costs by choosing well-insulated homes and those which use renewable energy sources or energy-efficient boilers.
How we select and use our appliances will also have an effect, with gas hobs using less energy than electric. Full loads in dishwashers and washing machines will trim costs.
Smart meters are a great way for raising awareness of usage.
