The Energy Blog Electricity prices frozen - so you don't need to be

We’re freezing electricity prices for a third winter and throughout next year to at least January 2018 making almost four years of stable pricing despite the fall in Sterling against the Euro. Meanwhile, customers in the UK are bracing themselves for potential double-digit price rises this winter due to a combination of the fall in the Pound, increased wholesale prices and green taxes. One company has already raised prices by 30%.

Simplicity

Every week more and more people in Jersey are switching to the simplicity of electricity. Gas Banding Standing Charges introduced at the start of 2016 were designed to help people budget better. But nine different ‘bands’ based on the age of your property and previous consumption, have left many customers confused.

Meanwhile, even people who heat their homes by oil are finding a bedazzling choice of prices depending on supplier, amount and delivery date, with oil prices generally on the rise again since the spring.

Tariffs

Jersey Electricity’s tariffs haven’t changed for almost three years and won’t be changing until at least 2018. Four tariffs offer off-peak discounted electricity for heating depending on your heating system and lifestyle. If you already use electric heating, make sure you are on the best tariff and using it correctly. Watch this simple video or visit our tariff section
