Comment | The standing charge in Scotland alone is 49p/day right now, so with electricity to be 52p a unit from next month, your £30 a month is equivalent to 30kWh, or a unit a day.
That's an average energy consumption of 40W, which is equivalent to having an efficient fridge plugged in and a couple of energy saving light bulbs on.
I'm sorry to say that if you plan on using heating, a washing machine, or having any hot water, or any electrical devices, you aint going to be on £30/month. Even the lowest energy use households are going to be on at least £150/month once the new cap kicks in. |
