Reduce your energy bills and gain control - top tips to get energy smart to save money

Brits are being urged to get “energy smart”.

With more people working from home, domestic gas and electricity usage has increased.

Now price comparison website MoneySuperMarket is promoting simple steps to help reduce bills.

Regular switching, paying by direct debit, opting for online billing, submitting monthly meter readings and getting a smart meter – all can help you reduce bills and provide you with a greater sense of control over your energy bills.

Stephen Murray, MoneySuperMarket energy expert, said: “Though it might seem strange to start thinking about your energy bills in summer, there’s never a wrong time to make sure you are energy smart.

“And with lockdown restrictions still in place, domestic energy demand is still higher now than at the same time in previous years, so we could expect spring and summer energy bills to be more expensive than normal.“With this in mind, we’re encouraging Brits to follow five simple steps that will give them a greater sense of control over their energy bills and help them reduce their bills.”
