UK energy regulator Ofgem on Thursday announced that the price cap on how much suppliers can charge consumers will rise by 54 percent due to soaring wholesale gas prices, sending bills spiralling.

The regulator announced the energy price cap for those not on a fixed deal with their supplier will rise by £693 to £1,971 in England, Wales and Scotland from April.
