"Energy regulator Ofgem said the typical annual household bill would go up from £1,834 to £1,928, a rise of £94 or 5%."

From Martin Lewes on X, as he normally has the unit rates up front,

ELEC: Unit rate: 28.62p/kwh (currently 27.35p) so up 4.6%. Standing charge unchanged at 53.37p
GAS: Unit rate: 7.42p/kwh (currently 6.89p) so up 7.6%. Standing charge unchanged at 29.6p7p

But tariffs went down quite a lot in this last quarter - are they going up again, or is it just what OFGEM will say is the price cap?
