The calculator is free to use, and the details you provide are anonymous.
Before you start, make sure you have information about your savings, income, pensions and existing benefits (for you and your partner).
If you run out of time, you can save your calculation and come back to it later, and pick up right where you left off. Click below to get started.
We know that the cost of energy is really impacting our customers. Between 1 October to 31 December 2024 the energy price cap is set at £1,717 per year for a typical household who use gas and electricity and pay by Direct Debit.
The price cap ensures that prices for people on default energy tariffs are fair and that they reflect the cost of energy. Ofgem update the level every three months to reflect changes in underlying costs as well as inflation.
The price cap does not limit your total bill, which depends on how much energy you use. The way you pay for your energy, where you live, your meter type and your consumption will affect your energy bill.
You can find some helpful information about the support we can provide on our Energy Support and Advice Page.
