Energy suppliers will be forced to tell customers about the cheapest tariff they have on offer under proposed reforms for the industry unveiled by the energy watchdog today.
Ofgem said its plans will put an end to consumers being confused by complex tariffs and will usher in a "simpler, clearer, fairer and more competitive" energy market.
The plans come after Prime Minister David Cameron backtracked on a commitment to require energy firms to give households the cheapest deals - rather than simply inform consumers what is available, as unveiled by the regulator today.
