European countries have taken different approaches to higher energy bills.

Italy has announced a €14bn plan to allow families to keep their fuel bills at around 2021 levels.

The Dutch government is planning to cap electricity and gas prices for households from 1 November. The prices will revert to January 2022 levels up to a certain level. Any extra use will be charged at market rates. There is also a one-off payment of €200 euros for people in Spain who earn less than €14,000 a year and are not already receiving benefits.The government has an energy-saving plan which includes limiting air conditioning in public buildings and shops in the summer and keeping heating to 19C in the winter.

There will be higher thresholds for households with people with disabilities and for families with three or more children. Households that reduce electricity use by 10% in 2023 compared with 2022, will be rewarded with an additional discount.Norway has set a maximum price that households should pay for their energy - anything over this, the government will pay 80% of the bill.
