Latest energy tariffs released

Last updated: 09/01/2026

As of 1 January 2026, the Energy Price Cap has risen to £1,758, a small increase of £3 compared to the previous level of £1,755. This change is now in effect and continues to reflect ongoing pressures in wholesale energy markets.

In the Autumn Statement on 26 November 2025, the Government also confirmed plans to end the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) scheme in March 2026 and reduce the amount households pay towards the Renewables Obligation (RO) scheme. These changes are expected to cut energy bills by around £150 per year for a typical dual-fuel household from 1 April 2026, with the biggest savings seen on electricity bills. From that date, electricity unit rates will fall by 3.37p/kWh (3.54p including VAT) and gas by 0.31p/kWh (0.35p including VAT).

In the meantime, many fixed tariffs remain cheaper than the cap, with some deals averaging under £1,520, offering households a chance to lock in savings and gain price certainty before further changes take place.
