The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
Decisions about standing charges are a matter for utility providers and Ofgem, not the UK Government or Parliament.
The price cap is a cap on a unit of gas and electricity, with standing charges taken into account. Find out more about the energy price cap, including how it includes standing charges, here: www.ofgem.gov.uk/check-if-energy-price-cap-affects-you
