Energy firms join charity push for social tariff to offset fuel poverty
Millions of households face highest bills in a decade as regulator Ofgem raises energy cap
Leading energy suppliers have joined charities in calling on the government to put in place a social tariff for those living in fuel poverty, after the industry regulator raised a cap on energy tariffs by up to £153 a year on Friday.
Millions of homes will be forced to pay some of the highest energy bills for the past decade after the cap was raised for some of the most vulnerable households in the country.
