UK green energy surcharges set to switch from electric to gas bills

Ministers are set to outline plans to shift green surcharges from household electricity bills on to gas bills in an attempt to nudge consumers towards lower-carbon alternatives.

The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy said: «We want to encourage people to take up technologies such as heat pumps and electric vehicles. Affordability for consumers and taxpayers will be at the heart of our approach.»
