UK energy giant Powergen has announced it is to increase its prices once again this year.
Gas prices for consumers are to rise by 9.6% - the third rise this year - while electricity prices will be increased by 8.9%, the German-owned firm said.

The increase means that gas prices for the company's six million customers will have surged by 17.6% during the course of 2004 alone.

It was the second rise for electricity prices, which jumped 6.9% in January.
