New Nuclear RAB charges and upcoming increases to TNUoS costs are set to impact business energy bills. Nuclear RAB charges will help fund new low-carbon nuclear projects, while TNUoS standing charges are forecasted to rise by up to 90% in 2026/27, according to NESO.

With these changes on the horizon, Dyce Energy is taking a clear approach: any fixed-rate contract signed before the end of 2025 will remain fixed, no matter how much Nuclear RAB or TNUoS charges rise.

As we near the end of 2025, the UK energy market remains steady but watchful. Recovering gas flows, high storage levels, and mild weather have supported stability, though variable wind output and LNG disruptions added pressure. Forward prices have edged higher, reflecting continued caution heading into winter.

This month, Dyce Energy explores what’s driving prices, from calls to reform Ofgem to the £1 billion spent curtailing wind generation, and outlines what to watch in November, helping your business plan ahead with confidence.

September was steady overall but never dull. Norwegian gas maintenance eased by month-end, storage stayed high, and a windy spell briefly crashed UK day-ahead power below £30/MWh. Forward contracts hardly moved, a reminder that calm averages can disguise sharp intraday swings. With autumn underway, weather, wind and supply flows will set the tone, and planning ahead still pays.
