Major energy providers are making changes to their prices per unit from 1 January.
Britain's biggest energy suppliers have been contacting customers about a minimal price change starting in the new year, the BBC has learnt.
The changes will affect the 12 energy "regions" across Britain from the start of January and means suppliers are allowed to put their prices up to those new maximum levels for gas and electricity.The government's Energy Price Guarantee means that the average customer on a standard variable tariff pays 34p per kilowatt hour for electricity and 10.3p per kWh for gas. At those rates, a household with typical energy use will pay £2,500 a year.
The biggest changes are for customers paying in monthly or quarterly bills for their energy. Prices are increasing in all of the 14 areas for both gas and electricity with the biggest changes being for those in North Wales and Merseyside, as well as in London, which are both increasing for electricity by more than 1p per kWh.
