Combined household expenditure on energy derived from gas reached 13.83 billion British pounds in 2019. Spending had seen only slight fluctuations since 2010, with the most prominent being a jump to 17.1 billion British pounds in 2013. That year corresponds with supply problems from a Norwegian plant – the UK’s lead exporter – and below-average winter temperatures across the country.
The price of gas in the United Kingdom is forecast to amount to 37.6 pence per therm by 2024/25. This would translate into a 38 percent decrease compared to 2018/19, when gas prices reached a peak of 60.7 pence per therm. Between 2018/19 and 2020/21 figures are expected to fall by over 56 percent, before increasing again in the following years.
