If the Cap fits - the figures in kWh for easier digestion.

mapj1

Ofgem have published their 'price cap' today here 

Basically depending a bit on region the max that suppliers can charge for leccy is about 53 p unit in the midlands and more like 57p in Mersyside, and the south east.

Gas will be 15.5-16p per kwhr again varying a bit by region.

I think things like solar Panel setups that last year would have needed a decade to pay for itself will now be looking a lot more attractive.

  • Well there is nothing like politics to mess things up

    So Mrs Truss' scheme has the following, to be confirmed but what was going to be a 54p a unit top rate becomes more like 34p. per kWhr.
    I wonder how long the govt can afford to keep that up.

      New energy price guarantee rates from
    1 October 2022    		 Current price cap
    (until 30 September 2022)
    Gas 

    Unit rate: 10.30p per kWh

     

    Standing charge: 28.49p per day

    Unit rate: 7.37p per kWh

     

    Standing charge: 27.22p per day
    Electricity

    Unit rate: 34.00p per kWh

     

    Standing charge: 46.36p per day

    		 Unit rate: 28.34p per kWh

    Standing charge: 45.34p per day
    Rates and standing charges are averages, which vary slightly  by region. Assumes payment via direct debit and includes VAT (at 5%).

    That's good - only 50% instead of 100% more for gas.

    If she puts up taxes, what's the problem? ;-)
