Northern Ireland's third-largest electricity supplier ElecIrelandNI announces a 24% increase in its residential bills from January, while PowerNI says its customers will not face any price rises this winter
The energy cap is currently discounting electricity and gas bills, but that level of support in Northern Ireland is decreasing from January because of a fall in wholesale costsThe third largest electricity supplier in Northern Ireland, Electric Ireland, has announced a 24% increase in its residential electricity bills from January.Electric Ireland has about 90,000 residential customers in NI.
Bill Coyle, Head of Residential Northern Ireland at Electric Ireland, said: "Increases in our wholesale electricity costs, driven by substantial rises in international wholesale energy prices as a result of the ongoing energy crisis, have necessitated an increase to our residential tariff from 1 January next year."
The head of energy policy at the Consumer Council, Raymond Gormley, said: "It is welcome news that Power NI have announced a much-needed price reduction for its customers. However, the fact that it is happening at the same time as changes are being made to the EPG scheme means that consumers won't see a difference in their bills.
