How is the Rate of Last Resort different from the RRO?

Unlike the RRO which is a monthly fluctuating rate that adjusts based on the market, the Rate of Last Resort will be set every two years to avoid sudden spikes in pricing for customers.��The Rate of Last Resort will be a fixed rate from January 1, 2025, until December 31, 2026, and can only go up or down by a maximum of 10% every two years.
