Energy bills are set to fall from this summer - but households are still paying substantially more for gas and electricity compared to two years ago.
This means you should still be conscious of your energy consumption - especially if you’ve already brought the fans and hot tubs out as the temperatures soar.
The Ofgem price cap is due to fall to £2,074 a year for the typical household paying by direct debit from July 1.
At the moment, the majority of households are covered by the Energy Price Guarantee which sits at £2,500 a year for someone with average energy use.
While the change in the Ofgem price cap will mean bills fall, the average household will still pay almost double the rate for their gas and electricity than before costs started to soar.
This is because the Ofgem price cap stood at £1,277 a year in winter 2021.
Households also no longer benefit from the £400 discount - which worked out at £66/£67 a month for six months - as this ended in March.
If you're watching your energy consumption, comparison site Uswitch has rounded up how much using various popular summer items will cost you.
Using a fan
Using a desktop electric fan costs roughly 11p a night to run for nine hours - but this will drop to 10p from July 1.
Pedestal fans cost a bit more, 18p for nine hours - and this will drop to 16p from July 1.
Patio heater
Using a 2.1kW electric patio heater currently costs 69p an hour, falling to 63p on July 1.
Hot tub
A hot tub with a power rating of 2.2kW currently costs 73p an hour in electricity at maximum power, falling to 66p from July 1.
Wine fridge
Running a wine fridge uses 130kWh over the course of a year, currently costing about £42.90, so it would cost less than 12p to run it for a day.
Costs for July 1 would be £39 a year and 10.7p a day.
Mowing the lawn
A 1.2kW electric lawn mower would cost 40p to use for an hour now, falling to 36p from July 1.
