Energy prices will go down soon.. right?

Not sure about te UK but there are grids wherein the supply price is pegged to the most expensive and least used so as to encourage providers to produce the cheapest energy.

It isnt a bad idea hut it requires an off ramp for the beenfits to be passed on to consumers.
