E.ON Energy customers could be set to notice £211 extra in their bank accounts. The energy provider, which serves households in Birmingham, says it has repriced its Next Fixed 12-month tariff.

Tariffs could save customers, on average, £211 against current predictions for the July – September Energy Price Cap. Next Fixed 12m v128 is now priced at £1,641 (previously £1,693) for a typical household using gas and electricity, with a £50 per fuel exit fee.

The tariff could offer savings of £211 against the July – September price cap based on E.ON Next’s current price cap predictions – though forecasts remain subject to change as market conditions evolve.

E.ON Next has assessed the factors that influence the price cap and is currently predicting the price cap will increase by £211 to £1,852 in July.

EON is “committed to giving you the information you need, when you need it, especially when it comes to making informed decisions about your energy use,” it says.

It adds: “So, after looking at the facts and crunching the numbers, we’ve predicted that the July price cap will be £1,852. This is an increase of £211 compared to the April 2026 price cap.

“If you’re a customer on our Next Pledge or Next Flex tariffs, we predict prices will increase from July 2026. To help secure long term certainty, log in to your account or check out our latest fixed tariffs.”

The Labour Party government introduced the energy price cap in 2019 to protect customers on energy tariffs with standard variable rates. The energy regulator Ofgem calculates and sets the energy price cap to reflect industry costs.

They review the price cap every three months. The price cap level is set for customers in England, Wales and Scotland. Retail energy prices in Northern Ireland are not subject to a cap.

It’s important to point out that the price cap is not an actual ‘cap’ on your total bill.
