‘This debt has built up because bills have gone beyond what many low-income households can afford.’ Our Policy Analyst James in @mirror.co.uk responding to the news that total energy debt has reached a new record high. www.mirror.co.uk/money/energy...

Out on the lake, quacking the case 🦆 We’ve been at Battersea Park again today, with Enable and the @tensorplc.bsky.social team. We’re currently investigating how to power the lake’s aeration system more efficiently, as part of a wider project to decarbonise this much loved London park!⚡️

Everyone has to pay the standing charge even if they don’t use any energy. This disproportionately affects low-income users. #FuelPovertyAwarenessDay

Energy prices are 50% higher than pre-crisis levels and people are struggling. This #FuelPovertyAwarenessDay we stand with @nea-ukcharity.bsky.social in tackling fuel poverty so people in SW London can stay warm, safe and healthy in their homes. Read here ➡️ www.crewenergy.london/blog/what-fu...

With all the talk about energy prices, I'm sure you're all asking yourselves how much households other than yours pay for energy. Surely not everyone spends £[insert price cap] a year. Ask no more. Here we explain and chart how things like heating tech, house size and lifestyles affect bills:
