British Gas is to cut duel fuel bills and other energy firms have announced price freezes after the Government revealed measures it hopes will cut bills by an average of £50 a year. But Ed Miliband has dismissed the plans as "smoke and mirrors".
Energy Secretary Ed Davey is giving an energy statement in the House of Commons.
He began by noting that Britons have seen bills rise every year for the last decade. He said energy companies need to be more transparent about what constitutes energy bills.
The coalition has unveiled measures it says will knock £50 off the average energy bill, but some of that cost will be absorbed by taxpayers.
The Government has laid out its ideas on how to cut energy bills this winter - but the plan has been put together in haste.
