Regulator Ofgem plans to require energy suppliers to offer tariffs without standing charges, allowing customers to choose between two pricing options. This proposal, driven by public dissatisfaction and the rise of fixed daily charges, could significantly impact households, especially those with low energy usage. While some advocate for automatic placement on no-standing-charge tariffs for vulnerable customers, suppliers caution about the complexities of such changes. The proposed shifts aim to provide better control over energy bills, amidst ongoing discussions about addressing regional disparities in standing charges.
