Electricity tariffs/Prices

EDF

Standing charge was 25p now 35p

Unit rate was 15.9p now 26.91p

Direct debit was £105/month now £173/month

That's a 65% increase.

Think Edf advised me to stay on their out of contract rate which was a lot cheaper than their in contract.
Out of contract was agreed in September for 12 months.

That was their easy fix rate - 2 years ago I rang and renegotiated to a lower rate .This time the best unit price is 32p so I've stayed on the easy fix renewal.

We have a firm coming tomorrow, new robot shed going up next week could have 50kw panels on it by Christmas

Do the cows use the robots more in the daylight hours or could they be persuaded to do so by judicious use of lighting

Our throughput is almost identical over the 24 hours.
If 3 washes / 24 hours get 2 of them onto night rate in winter. In summer get 2 washes between 9 & 5 when the panels are working

I can see a lot of people bypassing their meters if this carries on.

Edf, today, standing charge £1/day rising to £2/day pkw/hr 25p increased to 50p! Good job we don't use much. Wish I could double my prices overnight

I’m out of contract with SSE and currently on 65p/day standing charge and 27p/kw. Not sure wether to just sit tight or renew contract? Haven’t managed to get any prices yet, sitting on hold for ages makes me nearly as angry as the current prices!
