I'm not really sure how useful this is to anyone, but I'm paying 38 p per kWh of electricity with a 27 p standing charge. On my low usage this work out slightly above the cap right now but it's a fix that I took a punt on being cheaper come next winter. Time will tell...
About 65% of my electricity consumption is done during off peak hours, mainly for hot water, so my average rate is probably 21.5p per kWh.
I am supposed to be on Economy 7, so 7 hours of off peak electricity per night, but I have been getting 9 hours per night since I have had a smart meter installed (from 23:30 to 08:35 currently, without a gap)...
It's completely unknown what will happen in October so I am staying on the standard variable, I'd also suggest that the OP changes from their fix straight away.
