Energy prices have never seemed higher, but how does your electricity bill stack up to average bills for your town or city?
In general, the average annual energy bill across Northern Ireland (according to Power to Switch data from 2022-2023) is £1303.39, but this varies depending on where you live. We put together 2 years of data from Power to Switch in order to find out just what different cities, towns, and villages are paying, on average, for their energy.
Of course, lots of considerations go into energy costs, including home size and general usage, and this may mean that you are paying a different price to someone else in your town. However, it is good to see the average costs in order to make sure you aren’t paying over the odds. If you are, you might think about switching deals.
