What affects the cost of your energy bill?

Content: There are a whole range of factors that affect the price of gas and electricity. Variables such as supply and demand, availability, wholesale costs, transport costs, and infrastructure maintenance all have an influence. Then there are those things you probably wouldn't expect to affect the price you pay for gas and electricity, such as global conflicts and natural disasters, both of which are a reason for fluctuating prices. A lack of stability in an oil-rich area means lower fuel production and higher prices. The Libyan conflict in 2011, for example, meant that energy prices jumped to their highest in over two years and, more recently, Hurricane Harvey had an impact on energy prices. How does increased demand affect energy prices? The demand for energy not only drives the industry, but is arguably one of the largest factors affecting its price. Energy demand is about more than just domestic consumers. A huge range of industries have a part to play in the cost of our energy. From fuel and transportation, to manufacturing, computers, telecommunication and even construction - the industry is made up of many sectors and influencers.
