It's not just the weather outside that's freezing - we're freezing our prices for winter too.

Good Energy is delighted to announce we'll be holding both gas and electricity prices steady during winter.

This comes amid the recent controversy over energy pricing sparked by an investigation by energy regulator Ofgem and announcements of price rises by many other energy suppliers.

The move to hold prices down demonstrates our unwavering commitment to ensuring that green energy is more accessible. We hope that reducing the price differential between renewable and many fossil-fuel-based suppliers will encourage more consumers to switch to a green energy tariff, bringing the country closer to a 100% renewable future.

But also integral to the Good Energy mission is reducing energy consumption - we want people to become more aware of their energy use and consequently do more to become energy efficient. This will not only bring down bills but will have a positive impact on the environment, particularly important during the current cold snap that has hit the country as people are likely to be using significantly more energy to heat their homes.

Our Customer Care team have been trained to a new Energy Saving Trust endorsed advice standard, so customers wanting tips about how to stay warm and save energy too should give them a call on 0845 601 1410.

Our CEO Juliet Davenport had this to say about the good news.

"This decision, made possible by the hard work of the Good Energy team to improve the efficiency of our energy trading, is great news for existing and potential customers as it reduces the gap between the cost of renewable and fossil fuel energy, meaning more people than ever will be able to switch to Good Energy.

"Price increases of recent years are in part due to the pressures on supply of traditionally sourced energy. Good Energy believes it is possible to have a 100% renewable energy mix in the UK by 2050. We've developed a pathway that sets out how we can achieve this, involving changes to UK energy at every stage of the process, from grid management to investment, and from R&D to transport."
