Plan shown: Variable Discount Plan 24h (€50 welcome bonus). Urban 24-hour meter, all figures include 9% VAT. The annual bill is unit rate times 4,200 kWh plus the standing charge, and excludes the PSO levy, which is the same at every supplier.

What it means for a typical home
On the Yuno Energy plan we track, a home using 4,200 kWh a year now pays an estimated €1,683 a year before the PSO levy: 34.85c/kWh per unit plus a €219.22 standing charge.Yuno Energy quoted the increase at 9.5% (gas up 11%) on its standard plan.
What to do now
This increase is already in the rates Yuno Energy quotes today, so the question is whether a rival's new-customer discount beats what you now pay. Yuno Energy charges a €100 early exit fee if you leave inside the 12-month contract, so check your contract end date first. If you stay, ask Yuno Energy for its best existing-customer offer rather than sitting on the standard rate.
Check whether a switch beats your new rate
Yuno Energy's early exit fee is €100 inside the 12-month contract. Compare the full annual bill, not the unit rate alone, on our cheapest electricity in Ireland table, which already carries the announced rates.

Compare Yuno Energy with another supplier
Does solar help?
A price rise only applies to the units you buy from the grid. A typical 4.4 kWp rooftop system offsets roughly 40 to 60% of a home's imports over a year, more with a battery, so the share of your bill exposed to Yuno Energy's new unit rate shrinks by about the same amount. Surplus is paid for under the Clean Export Guarantee, which Yuno Energy pays at 17.16 c/kWh.
Yuno Energy price increase FAQ
When does the Yuno Energy price increase take effect?
The Yuno Energy increase took effect on 1 July 2026 and is already built into the rates the supplier quotes today.
How much more will I pay Yuno Energy after the increase?
Yuno Energy quoted the increase at 9.5% (gas up 11%) on its standard plan. The plan we track now charges 34.85c/kWh with a €219.22 standing charge, an estimated €1,683 a year at 4,200 kWh before the PSO levy.
Can I leave Yuno Energy before the price increase?
Yes, but if you are inside the 12-month contract Yuno Energy charges a €100 early exit fee, so check your contract end date first. Switching takes a few weeks, so start before the effective date if you want to be on a new supplier's discount when the rise lands. Compare the full annual bill rather than the unit rate alone.
Do solar panels protect me from the Yuno Energy increase?
Partly. A typical 4.4 kWp system offsets roughly 40 to 60% of a home's grid imports over a year, so the share of your bill exposed to the new unit rate falls by about that much. Surplus is paid under the Clean Export Guarantee, which Yuno Energy pays at 17.16 c/kWh. The standing charge still applies whether or not you have solar.
