Energy supplier hikes prices
ENERGY supplier EDF has increased its electricity prices by 17 per cent and its gas prices by 22 per cent, it announced today.
The company blamed record wholesale energy costs for the increases, which come into effect immediately.
Eva Eisenschimmel, chief operating officer of EDF Energy customers branch, said: "Record world oil prices have continued to drive up wholesale gas prices.
"Alongside unprecedented rises in wholesale coal and electricity costs, this has impacted hugely on the cost of supplying energy to our customers."
