Treasury officials are working on plans
that could reduce future rises in energy bills

The paper says the proposals involve
a government-backed lending scheme
for suppliers to reduce the amount
they need to charge households,
though adds the scheme would only
be in place in time for the January rise
in the price cap, not the one scheduled for October.]
