Energy prices have been at the heart of the news for the past week.  Heating oil and diesel prices have rocketed since Iran effectively closed the strait of Hormuz choking off petroleum shipping.  And now the wider oil prices have soared 27% overnight.  So what does it mean for our electricity and gas prices here?  All to discuss with Stephen Gallagher, Managing Director of SSE Airtricity.  

Nominations are now open for the Newstalk Changemaker Business awards in association with FBD Insurance, across 9 categories, including Sustainable Workplace, supported by SSE Airtricity. Closing date is March 20th. Nominate now at newstalk.com/changemaker.
