Welcome to the first of our weekend round-ups for energy news!
With the New Year under our belts, and the expense of Christmas still reeling, what better time is there to take a good, hard look at your finances. The trend of 'listicles' (articles in the form of lists) is as strong as ever with all kinds of guidance on how you can save money, and the one consistent point between them all is to check whether or not you are paying the most competitive prices - and a quick quote over at Energy Advice Line will help you to figure that out in seconds.
For this week we've found some articles away from this traditional 'New Year, New You' style, to see what else has been happening over the weekend. There's been a lot of focus on how our energy use and everyday life is affecting the climate, tales of customer service woes, the promises in the general election build up, and more focus on the falling oil prices.
