    I’m in the North East and my Octopus Go tariff has just ended.  For the last year I have been paying:

    Off Peak (00:30 to 04:30)  5p / kWh

    Peak 14.99p / kWh

    Standing Charge 25p / Day

    My new Octopus Go tariff prices for one year (June 2022 to June 2023 are:

    Off Peak (00:30 to 04:30)  7.5p / kWh

    Peak 33.75p / kWh

    Standing Charge 48.65p / Day

    All above prices include VAT.

    I use spreadsheets to work all of my costings out and, based upon my actual usage this last year, my electricity costs are going to double.  Just over, in fact.  I suppose one good thing is that I won’t have to worry about the October increase.  My gas is also with Octopus but, luckily, my prices are fixed under a two year deal until June 2023.  I will worry about that in a year’s time.
