Energy costs are largely influenced by global prices, though the UK's lack of gas storage has kept energy prices more volatile than some other countries. So if the UK government said no price rises to energy suppliers, they would go out of business.
Expect a new price cap on 7th February with some limited assistance to those most in need.

Agreed. Also most of the so-called green levy goes to pay things like the winter fuel allowance for pensioners so if it was cut then how would these benefits be funded?
