dual fuel, single occupancy questions

I'm about to move into a new build 1 bed flat that's well insulated and has gas and electric.
It'll only be myself in there and I don't anticipate high usage, especially on gas, as strangely enough it has an electric shower and I have a dishwasher, so the only time I anticipate using gas is when washing hands/cooking(which will mostly be quick wok cooking, rather than lengthy baking) and minimal/moderate heating in winter.
Would I be best on a tariff without a standing charge (a lot of the seemingly cheaper deals on uswitch have huge standing charges for the year), something like scottish power?. Has anyone been in a similar situation and can estimate usage (in kwh?).
