The energy firm says it will be reducing its tariffs for customers in the Ten Towns Network area by 20.52% and by 17.60% in the Greater Belfast Network area, from January 1, 2023.
Announcing the price decreases, Niall Martindale, Chief Executive Officer of firmus energy said: “firmus energy is pleased to be announcing this price reduction. Throughout this challenging period, we committed that as soon as market conditions allowed us to lower our prices we would do so, and today we are pleased to confirm that prices will be reduced from January 2023.
From January 1, 2023, the UK Government’s Energy Price Guarantee Scheme is expected to further reduce the price customers pay by 3.893 pence per kWh, providing a further reduction in gas bills of up to 27.6%. Households in the region are due to be credited with a £400 payment automatically, to help with energy costs this winter as part of a UK-wide scheme. In his autumn statement, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt said all households in Northern Ireland would receive an additional £200 payment, in recognition of the region’s dependence on home heating oil.
