    painful isn't it... I'm running off of my 10p electricity i charged my batts with last night and on solar at the moment, with my usual high energy consuming devices in the house (i.e. rigs) turned off. 
    I'm definitely one of the optimists that are holding out for drops rather than switch to go...

    Yeah, oddly the current lockdown doesn't seem to be having the same effect on pricing as the last one did.

    This is just getting silly. Practically no off-peak period at all and max pricing all day today !
    Looks as if they're trying to force people away from Agile at the moment.

    You may be right no advantage at all with the whole day at rates that high... Glad I had issues setting up the Pi and so settled on GO

    It’s swings and roundabouts. Last spring customers on the Go tariff were paying 13p/kwh when Agile customers were getting negative prices. It’s linked to the wholesale price but is capped at 35p even when the wholesale price is £4/kwh.
