🎥 Watch a clip from yesterday showing our reaction to the latest price cap increase. 

Our message is simple: end the UK’s reliance on gas. The North Sea basin is running out, and households can’t keep paying the price for relying on it any longer. [1/2]

🚨Ofgem has confirmed the price cap will rise from 1 October. The ‘typical’ bill will be £1,755 (+2.03%). That’s a 2.21%year-on-year increase and still 68.43% (£713) higher than in winter 2020/21. [1/5]

New analysis shows 12.1 million UK households are struggling with energy costs, and almost 5 million spend more than 20% of their income on energy, placing them in deep fuel poverty. Energy debt is at a record £4.15bn.

It’s time for households to do one quick check to ensure those eligible get £150 off your bill this winter The #WarmHomeDiscount now covers more than 6 million households [1/3]

The data clearly shows that gas unit rates remain well above 2020/21 and standing charges have steadily increased year on year, keeping bills high. For households who can’t upgrade, ageing gas boilers mean they keep paying more, year on year.

Gas prices are still nearly double their 2020/21 level, and that matters for everyone’s bills, regardless of how you heat or cool your home. In Britain, gas often sets the price of electricity, so high gas prices mean higher electricity bills, even when renewables are generating. [1/2]

The Warm Home Discount is a proven lifeline that helps older, disabled and low-income households stay warm in the winter. Ministers have expanded the scheme to help more households struggling with the high cost of energy bills. [1/3]

Forecasts suggest Ofgem’s October price cap will nudge up by around 1% to £1,737 (about +£17). 

That means a fifth winter of the energy bills crisis, with families still paying far more than a few years ago. [1/3]

The £13.2bn Warm Homes Plan must be judged by how far it cuts fuel poverty and protects health, not just tick-boxes. [1/3]

Great to see MSPs bringing forward motions like this It backs the right path to end fuel poverty: mass retrofit, clean heat and more community renewables, highlighting analysis that North Sea gas won’t meet heating demand from 2027 and import reliance will soar, so new licences won’t cut bills

New proposals would give households near to new or upgraded electricity pylons £250 off their bills each year for a decade. Communities should absolutely see benefits, but a flat discount won’t fix high bills or fairness on its own. [1/5]

📉 North Sea gas is running out, and the UK will soon be almost entirely reliant on imports. Right now, just 14% of extractable gas remains, leaving us at the mercy of global energy markets, with prices that could rise sharply. [1/2]

🚨The UK will no longer produce enough gas to heat its own homes by 2027 Even new fields won't stop our growing dependence on imports The North Sea is running out of gas 🎦 Watch and share our report #EndFuelPoverty

🚨For 60 years, the North Sea powered the UK, but the gas is running out - fast Even if every new gas field is approved, UK production won’t meet our heating needs by 2027, and by 2050 94% of our gas will have to be imported. That’s not a policy choice, it’s geological reality [1/3]
