'Some households have saved over 800 a year': How switching energy supplier can lead to huge savings

"Energy prices are continuing to rise in Ireland, but if you shop around, you can reap significant rewards"

"There seems to be no let-up when it comes to rises in electricity prices."

"The latest cost hit comes from plans to increase electricity bills to fund a major upgrade of the national grid. Electricity users will face price increases next year of up to €20 extra a year on bills to pay for the €19bn upgrade."

Electricity users face potential increases next year of up to €20 extra per year to cover upgrade costs. Rising energy costs place additional pressure on household budgets. Consumers can reduce the impact of these increases by comparing suppliers, switching tariffs, or negotiating better deals. Active comparison and switching behavior can produce meaningful savings and help households manage higher ongoing electricity expenses.
