7th January 2026 Energy Price Alert – UK Gas & UK Electricity

Since our last report prior to Christmas the market has been quite volatile, but the net result is that as of yesterday the market closed at the same level as it was on 19th December for both wholesale gas and wholesale electricity.

Given the current geo-political pressures in the world, our prediction is that we can expect to see continued volatility in the weeks ahead.

Wishing you a healthy and prosperous 2026!

19th December 2025 Energy Price Alert – UK Gas & UK Electricity

Wholesale gas and electricity prices continued to rise on Thursday, albeit the wholesale prices still remain relatively low and the increases we have seen since end of September are nowhere near the levels historically seen this time of the year.

The price of electricity generation in the past week rose and was £72.89/MWh. Fossil fuels accounted for more than 30% of generation in the past week, with renewables sitting at 44.6%.

At a retail level we have seen softening of prices over the past month but with the increased wholesale commodity cost, combined with the increases in non-commmodity costs, retail prices are rising slowly.
