A typical household energy bill will be limited to £2,500 annually until 2024.
The think tank said "details and costings" were missing from the plan.
The huge support scheme could cost up to £150bn, but Prime Minister Liz Truss has refused to put a figure on it, saying "extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures".
The Department for Business could not offer a comment when contacted by the BBC, due to the period of national mourning.

This was pointed out time and again to Truss during the hustings, but she kept going on with the same mantra and people keeping money in their pockets
