London, Greater London (PRWEB UK) 21 January 2015 -- http://www.scottishpower.co.uk/price-reduction/
Neil Clitheroe, ScottishPower’s CEO of Retail and Generation, said:
“We are pleased to be able to pass on this price reduction to our customers, which will see the average annual gas bill on our standard tariff reduce by £33**.
“Today, we have also launched a new fixed-price tariff which is one of the most competitive in the marketplace, with an average dual fuel bill value of £930†. All ScottishPower customers can take advantage of our best deals by contacting us or visiting our website. Customers already on fixed-priced tariffs can also move between our tariffs at any time, without paying any exit fees.
“Today’s decision has been made to benefit our customers and keep our prices competitive. We will continue to keep our prices under review. Our pricing reflects all of the costs that contribute to a customer’s bill. The wholesale price of energy accounts for half of a customer’s gas bill, but non-energy costs such as transmission and distribution networks and environmental and social obligations remain unaffected by any wholesale energy price movements."
