- Jillian Ambrose

Energy suppliers have pulled tariffs advertised as "green" from the market since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 triggered a global energy crisis that pushed gas and electricity bills to record highs.

Green tariffs, which are typically more expensive than standard deals, made up about 85% of the UK's supply market in 2022 as climate-conscious households opted to pay a premium for deals backed by renewable energy.
