Living Flame Gas Fire or Central Heating??
Trying to plan ahead for the colder months and OH and I were chatting the other night about it. We have a living flame gas fire in our lounge (approx 4 years old) and I was saying that come the winter evenings I thought it would be cheaper to have just that on rather than the central heating for the entire house.

Reducing electricity use by lowering voltage?
This is a story I saw in the local rag. A council are planning to reduce their electricity bill by working at 230V, and if that's a success they're going to try 220V. With a single resistor and DC voltage, then power consumed is proportional to voltage squared over resistance. I assume that this roughly translates to mains…

I have a two bed terrace with a gas combi boiler, central heating and a gas oven and hob. I never use the heating as the house doesn't get cold, we generally half fill the bath daily for my…

Meter - who to choose?
As a renter, I've got to be honest and say I've never really paid much interest to suppliers of our energy because before now, we've not been allowed to change suppliers (landlord wouldn't allow it) but now we can. I've decided to go the meter route because a year of quarterly massive bills messed us up every time. So, how…

OK so where do we go from here??
Following the huge rises we've seen over the last few weeks where do people think energy prices will go over the next 12 months? Are we likely to see further hikes or maybe even, dare I say it price cuts at some point before the end of next year? At the moment it just feels like there's no end to the increases. The reason…
