Smart Time of Use tariffs

I'm still struggling to work out how people are using so much electricity that their current bills are well over £100 a month!

My own bill is a lot less than that and yet, as I say to my OH, if a light is on it doesn't matter if you're a single person on your own or a family of 5 you're still using the same amount of electric to light that lamp! Same for using the cooker, it doesn't matter if you're cooking a meal for a full household or just one person. If the cooker is on for an hour then it's on for an hour. Again, same with the TV etc doesn't matter if it's one person watching or twenty!  The only difference I can work out is perhaps the washing machine having to wash more clothes and I guess heating more hot water? A friend of mine tells me that his mate's electric bill was over £350 for the month but again I have to ask, how is he using that much in the first place? Surely it's time for him to reconsider his consumption of electricity? Do they have all their lights on 24/7? 

It can only be heating Lisa. If you're all electric and especially if you've taken out those old fashioned storage heaters and replaced them with the modern, green digital, internet enabled 100% efficient day rate panel heaters. Or tumble driers if you haven't got a garden.
