Fixed price Tarrif
Options
We were with Peoples Energy and we’re switched to British Gas. We have just been offered a new fixed tariff May23v1. Our current yearly estimated cost is £1641 and the new fixed rate estimates a yearly bill of £2060. This seems to fall within your 25% range. Wondering if this seems an acceptable deal based on these figures. We have solar panels and try to maximise the free electric as someone is home all day to run appliances.

Welcome to the forum.The MSE team think the "BG Exclusive May 2023 v1" tariff could be worth it:It works out as about £500/yr higher than the current capped SVT for the mythical average consumer.
