What's your summer usage and costs?
Wondered what people's summer usages are?
I seem to spend the same on gas and elec. Between £13 and £16 each month for each fuel.
That is excluding the monthly standing charge which is an extra £12 in total.
I'm on the co-op tariff which I should really change

About 3.2 Units of electric, and 3.4 metric units of gas.
Not that that really means anything.0 -
Hmmm - With Gas CH your monthly bill drops through the floor in Summer
The rule of thumb is that 80% of yur annual gas bill will be incurred in the Winter months
However your Elec bill is pretty stable though the year with a small drop in Summer, simply because you turn the lights on later in the day.0 -
From quick guestimates, I reckon we are using about £25-£30 per month in summer, goes up to £150 per month in winter. Heating was switched off 1st May, and won't come back on until end of September. Try not to use any lights in the summer - go to bed by 10pm.0

2.6 kWh electricity. 23 kWh of gas. Same in summer as in winter.
Strange question. What use can you make of answers?0
