Is energy cheaper in the North West than the national average?

Liverpool and Merseyside sit within the Electricity North West distribution area. Network standing charges in this region are typically 3 to 5% lower than in London and the South East, which translates to a small saving, around £8 to 18 per year, for North West households.
However, North West homes tend to be slightly larger on average and older in construction than those in London, which means annual usage can be higher. The net effect: Liverpool households pay close to the national average in total bills.
The fastest way to reduce your energy bill in Liverpool is not to wait for regional network savings, it is to compare and switch. Enter your postcode on Switch to see every tariff available at your address, ranked by projected annual cost.
