Energy prices in Northern Ireland

jammin_2

Hi everyone,

Considering a move North of the border. Just wondering what energy prices are like at the moment?

If you can spare a minute, please post as follows:

• Area of NI you live in,
• Average monthly electricity bill,
• Average monthly gas bill.

Thanks!

Are you the first economic refugee? Only joking!
As of 1 January, the standard domestic unit price is 15.81p per kwh including VAT at 5%. Comparing that with the ESB unit price is more useful, I reckon, than the average monthly bill. It all depends on how much you use.
Bear in mind that gas is only available in the Greater Belfast area; nearly everybody else depends on heating oil (you can check prices at www.cheapestoil.co.uk).

Phoenix gas prices inc VAT
6.208p per kwh for the first 2000 kwh
4.132p per kwh for the rest

as far as I know they are the only supplier in most of NI. Many parts of NI have no natural gas supplier at all. To see where Phoenix serve see this website http://www.phoenix-natural-gas.co.uk/natural-gas/is-natural-gas-available-in-my-street/
