This is lower than its prior prognosis in June, which anticipated that the cap would climb by 9.9% to 1,723.<\/p>\n<p>Craig Lowrey, principal consultant at <strong>Cornwall Insight<\/strong>, stated: \u201cThis is not the news households want to hear when moving into the colder months. Following two consecutive falls in the cap, I\u2019m sure many hoped we were on a steady path back to pre-crisis prices.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, the lingering impact of the energy crisis has left us with a market that\u2019s still highly volatile and quick to react to any bad news on the supply front. Despite this, while we don\u2019t expect a return to the extreme prices of recent years, it\u2019s unlikely that bills will return to what was once considered normal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWithout significant intervention, this may well be the new normal.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Energy customers of British Gas, OVO, EDF, EON Next and Octopus have been told they can avoid a \u00a3146 price hike from October.
