Announcing the price reductions, Niall Martindale, Chief Executive Officer of firmus energy said: “firmus energy is delighted to be announcing its second price reduction this year.

“We previously committed to our customers that as soon as market conditions allowed us to lower our prices we would do so, and today we are pleased to confirm that for the second time this year prices will be further reduced from April 2023. We recognise the wider cost of living challenges within the communities we serve, and at firmus, we are working hard to make positive change for our 110,000 loyal and valued customers.
