【原文】

Though wholesale energy prices have fallen back down recently, retailers warn there’s a long lag—perhaps up to a year—before consumers will see the benefits of that because energy contracts were made months before, most likely reflecting those higher prices.

【译文】

尽管批发能源价格最近有所回落，但零售商提醒，消费者要看到价格回落的好处还需要很长一段时间（可能长达一年），因为能源合同是在几个月前签订的，很可能仍反映了较高的价格。
