Prices of the electricity we use to charge
- Thread starter flecc
- Start date
(I assume that it was a spelling 'checker' that kept changing kWh to kW, and gouging to gauging?
Hehe

Current price cap:"Fleeced" is putting it mildly!

Gas price is OK but we do get fleeced on electricity.
| Energy price cap per unit and standing charge 1 October to 31 December 2024 | Energy price cap per unit and standing charge 1 January to 31 March 2025 | |
|---|---|---|
| Electricity | 24.50 pence per kWh 60.99 pence daily standing charge | 24.86 pence per kWh 60.97 pence daily standing charge |
| Gas | 6.24 pence per kWh 31.66 pence daily standing charge | 6.34 pence per kWh 31.65 pence daily standing charge |
That became inevitable when the government guaranteed EDF 19p per unit for HInckley Point electricity when it started, about triple price at the time, in order to get it built at all.
That meant electricity users had to get used to a far larger amount than that in future to pay for distribution, so today's prices are just a softening up measure, which incidentally help to pay for wind farms meanwhile.
The Chinese call it re-education.

The entire energy market is a weird thing.
We produce natural gas and crude oil. This is extracted by companies we sell licences to, who extract it, then as it now belongs to them, they put it on the energy market and we buy it at market prices.
Its going to go the same way with the electricity from the windfarms off the coast of Aberdeen.
The government(English) are proposing laying powerlines from Aberdeenshire, the length of the country and over the channel to the EU, where they intend to sell it.
Any excess we need we'll buy from the market at again market rates.
Rather obviously than laying powerlines to N/Scottish/UK communities and saving the consumer money with locally and cheaper to produce renewable energy.

About time too. Those businesses are one way bets. If the business prospers, it makes new billionaires, if not, they blackmail governments to bail them out.

It couldn't be cheaper. The high cost of the turbines means the companies only install them if guaranteed payment for the electricity, whether used or not. With Scotland using less, they'd be paying even more for unused current.

If they kept their Neukleer reactors on, they'd save so much "Karbon", hehe. Und geld sparen!
