    So if OP does 2.500 miles @ 3 miles per kWh that is 833 kWh & £19.98 a year in charging.
    I have no doubt that OP will get more than 3 miles kWh

    Current
    1361 kWh  would be £32.60 a year.
    S/C £24.75
    Total  £77.33

    OP S/C is high?

    IOG
    Basing it on OP figure

    30.17p = £40.80
    0.07p = £5.83
    S/C 67.83p = £24.45
    Total £71.08

    Not forgetting if OP can charge during the day, then they can bring down daytime house usage costs to 0.07p as well saving even more.

    My average daytime rate is between 15 & 12p a month. But that is due to around 800 miles a month across 2 EV's charging in daytime.

    Op's annual is less than our monthly 😶‍🌫️




    I am afraid you have completely confused me with your numbers!

    How are your daily standing charge numbers working out at +/- £25 a year?
    And how does 1361kWh equate to £32.60 per year? I think you have the decimal points in the wrong places 

    I thought my original and detailed calculation earlier was a reasonable stab at answering the OP's question.

    A tariff like OVO charge anytime would allow you to choose any fixed rate, or the cap rate, at the same time as having the electric used to charge your car reduced to 7p/ KWH. You do need a compatible car or charger.
