Energy bills could rise by £17 to bailout firms
A one-off rise to energy bills of up to £17 a year to help prevent suppliers going bust is being considered by the UK's energy watchdog.
Ofgem said it was considering the measure to protect The Market and consumers after figures showed energy debts reached £2. 6bn in the summer.
The Rise in debt was due to both the increase in wholesale energy prices and wider cost of living pressures.
Any rise in bills would not take place until April next year, Ofgem said.
" We know that households across the country are struggling with wider cost of living challenges, including energy, so any decision to add costs to The Price cap is not one we take lightly, " said Tim Jarvis, director general for markets at Ofgem.
" However, the scale of unrecoverable debt and the potential risk of suppliers leaving The Market or going bust, which passes on even greater costs to households, means we must look at all the regulatory options available to us. "
Ofgem said that if a one-off rise to bills did not take place, there was a risk that consumers could face Even Higher costs and poorer standards of service if suppliers go out of business.
The regulator said that when energy prices started to rise in 2021 about 30 suppliers went out of business, and this led to every energy customer being charged an extra £82 to cover the costs of making sure that households were not cut off.
Ofgem said it would consult with the energy industry, consumer groups and The Public over the options, including how any rise in bills might be spread out.
" We must consider the fairest way to maintain a stable energy market and we will do this in consultation with all our partners to ensure We Are protecting The Most vulnerable households, " said Mr Jarvis.
