The annual energy statement anticipates average gas and electricity bills for medium-sized companies will rise by 19% by 2020 and 28% by 2030.  Electricity bills will increase 34% by 2020 and 45% by 2030.
The Department of Energy and Climate Change predict increases for medium sized businesses was less than a forecast a year ago due to programmes such as funding the renewable heat incentive through general taxation rather than a levy on fossil fuel suppliers.

On a more positive note, the government’s figures predict that average household energy bills would be 7% lower by 2020 than if no energy and climate policies were in place.  These assumptions are based on estimates that 14m homes will be insulated – free of charge – under the “Green Deal” carbon-cutting initiative.
