    Yikes! :o
    For me, 52.25p/kWh & 16.79p/kWh - the gas unit rate is almost as much as I was paying for electricity through most of 2021! :o

    The rates are driven by the future contract pricing as Octopus do actually hedge their future energy needs, so those prices simply reflect the current costs of those contracts...
