Domestic energy prices set to rise by 5% from April , says Cornwall Insight .

Price cap will rise from current level of 1,738 per year for a typical household.

Rise will come as the days get lighter and warmer, when energy use tends to fall.

Hike is due to a combination of colder weather and a fall in gas storage levels.
