Next week we should find out how the energy cap is to be applied – given that there is talk of caping and help for some businesses it will be interesting to see if EV charging points receive reductions – that would certainly help EV owners who are unable to charge at home – I know there are people on this forum who are in that position – if we are serious about encouraging EV then it should be taken seriously.

I think they could knock the VAT element down from 20% to 5% or even Zero, temporarily. I think with all the help given on fuel there should be a degree of assistance, bearing in mind 5p a litre +VAT goes back on petrol in the spring. We have a fixed deal with Octopus, perhaps I am being the optimist but hoping they might knock a couple of pence of the daily rate, if not 39p compared to the 34p cap is still good value. Last night it was a little nippy, put on an electric fan heater in the hall, 45 mins later the house was warm, total cost about 11p. Will obviously need longer in winter, but at least the gas price cap which is 10.5p is way better than 15p and 22p forecast for January so at least we can use the central heating a little if needed. Should have gone for solar panels 3 years ago!
