I don't even understand the increase though because they don't keep the VAT anyway unless there's loopholes so the reduction shouldn't affect their bottom line at all for a need to increase

It actually works out worse for the government but better for the businesses and consumers. The VAT functions like National Insurance in the UK so it goes towards public services like the NHS. Removing it entirely from electricity will take away upto £850m a year from public services. But in the UK we’re apparently using the scrapped money from the digital ID programme to fund this till the end of 2027. Which means we’ll likely need a new tax or tax increase to make up for it after 2027. Or bringing VAT back to electricity again.
