"Ovo Energy raises electricity, but lowers gas prices Electricity prices up 5.49%, but gas costs down 3%

Ovo Energy, one of the smaller energy companies, has offset an increase in its electricity costs with a surprise reduction in gas prices.
The price changes are now in effect for both its energy tariffs - Ovo 'New Energy' and Ovo 'Green Energy' - and equate to only marginal price differences for dual fuel customers.
Ovo New Energy customers will continue to pay an average of £1,050 a year, while Green Energy customers will pay around £1,102, an extra £2.
The move bucks the trend of the larger energy companies, four of which have announced blanket price increases of between 10% and 19% for gas and electricity. Which? research shows that rising energy prices are consumers' number one financial concern.
