Ofgem早前宣佈,由10月1日起能源價格上限再次提升,升幅超過80%(關於10月份能源加價),人心惶惶,商店、餐廳、咖啡店等收到巨額能源賬單,因無力支付而只好倒閉。連鎖式的店舖、酒吧,甚至私人學院的能源費用,可高達£2千多萬(比六合彩頭獎還要多)!因此新任的英國首相Liz Truss在競選首相一職時,曾向承諾市民,上任後率會先解決能源問題。
在星期二正式上任的她,沒有忘記承諾,並在今日9月8日星期四宣佈全新的能源計劃,來保障市民能渡過即將來臨的冬天。來看看這個計劃如何受惠市民?
全新的能源計劃
從10月1日起,在未來的兩年內,每年每戶家庭的能源價格上限將被凍結在£2500, 每戶可會折省£1000一年。同時在5月時推出的能源資助計劃(相關的詳情) ,仍會維持,每戶至少可獲共£400的折扣,分為6個月轉賬至市民的能源賬單戶口中。
Fixed rate 的用戶
假如你有先見之明,在10月份加價前已簽約成為fixed rate(固定收費利率)用戶,但卻因為全新能源計劃弄得反而更貴的話,怎麼辦?雖然首相在會議上沒有提及fixed rate用戶,但全新能源計劃已表明能源價格上限會被凍結在£2500,相信能源公司將明白並跟隨政府的政策來實行,fixed rate用戶可獲跟隨最新的價格上限。
如剛簽約的你,可根據英國法例,購買或簽約14日內取消合約而無須支付罰款或行政費用。
