Currently, Octopus are charging me 27.63p: my average usage was 2046 kWh per year; pre-Solar Panels: no Hot TubMartyn1981 said:
I wish my supplier charged 0.28p per kWh. At those rates I assume you have a hot tub in your garbage can? ;-)Oscargrouch said:
I think the aim is to use rather than export: when you export you only get 0.3p per kWh then when you import it back from your supplier it costs you around 0.28p per kWh70sbudgie said:11.3kWhr, 2.6 O's. The rain started about 2pm and then I managed around 0.4kW generation until 6:45. Hopefully managed to export some of that.
