Last month my electricity worked out at 18.4p/kWh; gas was 5.3p/kWh.Last months bill my electricity was a touch under 8p/kWh, due to overnight charging. My gas now varies daily but is usually around 6p lately.
My electricity rate is from a combination of Octopus Go cheap overnight rate and taking advantage of National Grid's Demand Flexibility sessions. Gas is Octopus Tracker.
My installation of batteries is on hold while I re-evaluate my plans. Meanwhile, the wind farm I have invested in should come online around the end of the year, which should reduce my electricity costs down to around zero. I'm also planning to invest a small amount in Ripple's new solar farm, to cover my increasing EV mileage.
Finally, I'm still hoping to replace my gas combi boiler, some time in the next 2 years, to an electric night storage combi boiler, at which point I will be all electric.
The ultimate goal will be to be all electric, with my wind / solar farm shares covering my energy bills and EV 'fuel' costs.
