So I generally charge my car up twice a week, 4 hours each on the cheap Octopus Go rate of 5p. So that's about 50kw per week to charge my car.
I seem to use around 7kw each day otherwise on other stuff
As my Octopus Go rate is ending soon and the new rates are astronomical, what should I do?
My Octopus Go renewal cost would be:
Peak unit rate: 32.49p / kWh
Off-peak unit rate: 7.50p / kWh
Standing Charge: 23.50p / day
Estimated annual cost (electricity only): £1,103.88
Or Flexible Octopus at:
Peak unit rate: 23.19p / kWh
Off-peak unit rate: 16.58p / kWh
Standing charge: 23.58p / day
Estimated annual cost (electricity only): £943.55
Going with Flexible apparently its just going to increase again in September so is it better fixing now?
I see EDF energy is a slight but cheaper maybe so may switch to them on their:
Standing Charge 32.10p per day
Unit Rate 28.74p per kWh
I believe their Off peak rates are 4.5 pence which you can switch to after.
So what is everyone else doing?
