What % of your electricity do you use "of-peak" if you are E7/E10 etc?
Please supply any other relevant info e.g what tarrif you are on (E7 / E10 etc.), how you achive a high % off-peak usage etc. To work out, divide off-peak units by total units (off-peak + peak) and multiply result by 100 i.e. 100 off-peak, 60 peak would be (100/160) x 100 = 62.5%
