Price signal

If there is a foul wind a blowin' then drop by for a chat - about coconuts of anything else off topic.

No EV sadly, but hoping to persuade them to get a HP but they are presently resolutely against it even though at their age it would be "free" and improve their life style :facepalm:

You do need to click a box to *say* you have an EV, but they don't check...

Pre-covid a mate at work was moaning that his mum was paying 25p/kWh off peak to fill her storage heaters. He'd had a quote to rip out the SHs and put in resistive panel heaters. I told him to get her on Go which at the time was 5p off-peak and 15p peak!

Her electric bill went from £500 a month to £100 a month.

(She lived in a 1-bed flat with no parking space!)
