(+5% VAT but we're registered so we get that back). Looks like a bargain at the moment. Standing charge is just under £1/day but we have a 3phase 100A feed so that's fair enough. I dare not look at what we'd have to pay if we were starting now. Quite likely twice that, as there's no cap on commercial tariffs.
I wrote this in March, at the time of the first price hike. It's now looking like the bargain of the century. I looked at what a new contract would cost at the moment. 96p/kWh. Commercial prices aren't capped.
We also now have a 30kWp PV system, though due to admin hiccups we aren't yet getting the SEG payments (7.5p/kWh) for what we export to the grid.
