    If you're looking for any useful comparison, you'll need to add the size and type of your accommodation and number of bedrooms, number of occupants, plus geographical location.

    Then replies might make a little sense.

    Oh yes and, most of all, try asking the question on the right forum, probably 'Gas & Electricity'.

    But it also depends on your individual circumstances and preferences. I live in the same size and style of house as a friend, but I like the temperature at 18c and he likes it at 24c, so obviously there is a reasonable difference between our gas bills!

    £36 for electricity
    £0 for gas - the mains don't stretch to the far south of Cornwall!
    Good Energy - because it all comes from wind, solar, etc.

    Impossible to answer without knowing how you heat and hot water your house. All-electric houses can be up to 300% more, as gas is a third of the price of standard rate electricity.
    The 'average' for a 3 b/r house with gas CHW and DHW is around £1250pa.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
