370k small firms trapped into fixed tariff hikes said they'll consider closing, downsizing or restructuring when Government energy support ends on Saturday. @centricaplc @edfenergy @eonenergyuk @OctopusEnergy @OVOEnergy @ScottishPower please let SMEs renegotiate their tariffs.
Energy companies should allow the small firms trapped into fixed tariff hikes to renegotiate or ‘blend and extend’ their contracts to access significantly lower wholesale energy prices.

Good to see @BBCBreakfast discuss @fsb_policy research this morning concerning the Energy Bill Relief Scheme. With just 3 months to go before the current scheme ends, the Gov must avoid a cliff-edge at the end of March, and announce ASAP what an extension of EBRS will look like.
