Keep it simple: Energy bills made easy

Some two thirds of consumers remain on a standard variable tariff, which can mean they are paying as much as £300 per annum more than they need too. While there are as many as 30 retail suppliers of gas and/or electricity supplying the market today, surveys suggest more than 30 per cent of respondents have never considered switching supplier, which would equate to some 9 million households across the UK.

This report recommends a significant simplification of energy bills to improve consumer engagement.
