Households face €26 electricity bill hike to keep lights on this winter

The Commission for the Regulation of Utilities says the network requires €478m to secure supply in 2023 and tariff changes are intended to cover €100m of that.
Households are to be told they must pay an extra €26 on average on their annual electricity bills to ensure the lights are kept on this winter.
The Commission for the Regulation of Utilities (CRU) said the significant risks to the country's electricity supply means it must "act quickly".
