Who sets my energy bill?
Ofgem, the UK's energy regulator, sets a price cap that limits how much suppliers can charge households for gas and electricity. While global fuel prices influence this cap, BP's profits don't directly determine your bill. The cap aims to protect consumers from excessive charges, especially during periods of market volatility like now.
