Eon when are peak and off peak times?

E10 prices are not 'a secret'. But they don't appear on any comp sites because they are limited in number, and only about 5 suppliers support them. So supplier choice on E10 is extremely limited.

Hello Malc,

Thank you for the additional information.

Could you please clarify your statement in Post #10 in reply to my initial post?

“ Here, all electricity used during these 10 hours is charged at the lower prices."

My existing RHT meter only supplies storage and water heating. All my ‘normal domestic’ use is charged at ‘normal’ on peak rates. Would you please confirm that with Economy 10 all electricity used during the 10 specified hours is charged at the lower rates? If this is the case I could possibly adapt my ‘normal domestic’ electricity consumption pattern to take advantage of cheap rates to mitigate the increased day rate prices.

If however the cheap rate only applies to normal domestic consumption for 5 hours in the middle of the night (as indicated in Post # 10) this would be of absolutely no use to me at all, and my electricity bills will indeed increase significantly as I originally feared.

Regards.

Morning GailForce

Happy to confirm, with the new Economy 10 meters we're now fitting, the 10 hours of off peak electricity is for all electricity used during these times.

In post #10 I was referring to the older type of Economy 10 meter. These have three sets of readings. As well as day and night, there's also a third reading for stored heat. With these meters, only the 5 off peak hours at night cover all usage. The other off peak periods in the evening and during the afternoon are limited to heating/water heating usage going through the dedicated circuits. This is recorded under stored heat.

Hope this helps GailForce. Let me know if you need any more details.
