Survey finds 80% worried about winter heating bills

Four in five Irish people are worried about the cost of energy this winter, according to the independent price comparison and switching service Switcher.ie.

The survey, involving 1,001 online interviews with Irish adults aged over 18 and carried out by iReach Insights, claims many are set to ration their household energy usage in a bid to keep a lid on bills following a raft of energy price increases.
