Halve Energy Bills

Families and pensioners are being clobbered with energy bills that are still more than £50 a month higher than they were five years ago. And businesses are suffering too.

Generating electricity from solar or wind is now much cheaper than gas. But people aren’t seeing the benefit of cheap renewable power, because electricity prices are still tied to the price of gas.

Years of terrible energy policies under the Conservatives pushed up everyone’s bills, and this Labour Government has failed to prioritise cutting them.

The Lib Dem plan would break the link between gas prices and energy costs, so people can enjoy the benefits of cheap, clean power. This would halve bills and save families £870 a year on average.
