This marks an increase of around £9 per month for the average household.
The cap is the maximum amount energy suppliers can charge you for each unit of energy.
The energy regulator says the price of electricity will rise from 24.86p per kWh to 27.03p.
The rise is because of an increase in gas prices across Europe, caused by a slump in the amount of gas that is held in storage across the continent.
