The current EON tariff (EON Energy / Heatwise Energy Plan 6) rates inc VAT are:
Economy 7 Day - 17p / kwh
Economy 7 Night - 7p / kwh ... (NOTE - this starts at 1am, running to 8am).
Economy 7 daily standing charge - 26p per day
Heatwise Boost - 17.5p / kwh
Heatwise Night / Eve - 8.7p / kwh
Heatwise Afternoon - 8.7p / kwh
Heatwise Daily standing charge - 11.6p per day
NOTE - 2 lots of daily standing charge
After analysing my usage, the major problem is clearly that my day rate of 17p / kwh is absolute extortion. Whilst electricity prices have gone up a lot, basic searching found me economy 7 tariffs with a day rate of 12p inc VAT, night rate of 6p inc VAT, one standing charge of 25p per day. But on the economy 7 part of my heatwise meter, I am being charged 17p inc vat day rate which seems crazy high to me.
No doubt it was set up to do the opposite, but it seems to fail on all points. Did somebody in government dream this up?0
