Invoices average £ 1,971 and add about £ 700 to invoices for millions of customers.
Energy price caps are expected to rise further in October.
In short, households are looking for ways to reduce their gas and electricity usage.
But you may not know that the way you cook your supper may increase costs.
Explain that you can save up to £ 173 a year by throwing away the oven and switching to an air fryer and microwave.
Use the microwave-up to £ 25
If you can cook the grab in the microwave, we recommend using the microwave instead of switching on the oven.
According to the Daily Mail, Uswitch estimates that cooking baked potatoes in the microwave can save 24p.
It takes 27p to cook in the oven, but 3p in the microwave.
So eating baked potatoes twice a week, every week of the year, saves £ 24.96.
Use Air Fryer-Up to £ 34
With an air fryer, you’ll be healthy not only in your bank balance, but also in your stomach.
Appliances are known for cooking healthier meals because they use less oil. It also saves energy bills.
Every 40 minutes it takes to cook in the oven, it takes 15 minutes in an air fryer, which is 22p cheaper.
So if you replace the oven with an air fryer three times a week, this saves £ 34.32 a year.
Exchange hot meals for cold meals-£ 15
Homes are enjoying the hot weather these days as the summer sun finally shines.
When it’s warm, you may want to try cold food instead of cooking to reduce the cost of running the oven.
Uswitch energy expert Will Owen previously told Sun that this could save £ 15.
Throw away the extra fridge-£ 99
Hot weather means barbecue season.
It’s a good idea to connect a second fridge to store all the extra burgers, burgers and liquor.
If you’re not using loops, it’s easy to leave the switch on, but it can add £ 99 a year to your energy bill.
If you’re worried about extra costs, don’t forget to use it completely this season or turn it off when your friends and family leave.
A money-saving expert reveals that the five devices in your kitchen are pushing up your energy bills.
