Our energy bills are going up by an average of £221 a year.
But that's only part of the story. During the cost of living crisis, millions of people faced unpayable bills. The result is a staggering £5.5 billion in energy debt — the highest level on record.
While families struggle to keep up with rising costs, energy industry profits are reported to have reached £3 billion in the first three months of this year alone.
The government has previously agreed to bring in a debt relief scheme, but since then they’ve been dragging their feet. Ministers must act before this crisis spirals even further out of control.
