It really depends on your existing tariff, if it is covered by the energy cap it should be around 25p or less per KWHr and will stay at that rate until April when it will be adjusted, almost certainly upwards.Hi, Is there any point in trying to move to an EV tariff currently? My current provider doesn't offer one, I guess most providers aren't taking new business.
Suggest you do the numbers see if worth it, I do about 1200 mls/month, all local so 100% home charging ( Octopus) and all at the off peak rate so no brainer for me.

Current Octopus Go tariff is 7.5p, 00:30 to 04:30, but the daily rate is a hideous 30p now, so may not work out that well depending on your use profile.I believe Octopus will put you on one if you call them but not via the website.
That's the quote I just got too from Octopus website.Current Octopus Go tariff is now 7.5p, 00:30 to 04:30, but the daily rate is a hideous 30p now, so may not work out that well depending on your use profile.
I am currently on SSE Fix and Drive which gave the equivalent of 8000 free miles , sadly ends this month after being on for one year , will go onto their Evergreen tariff at a cost of 20p per kwhHi, Is there any point in trying to move to an EV tariff currently?

it is a massive hit. We are all being told to stay where we are, and from what I can see options to move better rates are few and far between. I hada fix with Eon which is now expired and am on their Flex lowest tarriff same price as your BG.21p/ KWHr. It may soon be cheaper to charge on the motorway!I don't know what the price cap currently is but my electric went up from 14p/kWh to 21p/kWh when BGas took over from People's Energy, a 50% rise. Now were being told to expect another 50% rise on the price cap in April by the media, so that could mean a 200% increase in 6 months, if what I'm on now is the price cap or more if BGas have currently put me on a deal that is less than the price cap. Very worrying, after April I could be paying more per mile for electric than I was for petrol.
I tried to lookup what the government price cap was - per kWh, impossible to get a straight answer. All they state effectively is it must cost an average family no more than x amount a year, no mention of how many kWh that is to find out a per kWh rate.I don't know what the price cap currently is but my electric went up from 14p/kWh to 21p/kWh when BGas took over from People's Energy, a 50% rise.

Moixa do a smart battery only option. When I got a quote back in November a 7.2kw for £5,250 and a 9.6kw for £6,250.My EDF rate is 20p fixed for three years with 30 months remaining so good rate. Can see them increasing the daily charge rate to get a bit more out of me but shall wait and see. Have made some enquiries about battery storage use average 8kWh a day. Unfortunately the local companies who install batteries have failed to respond to my enquiries not wanting solar may be the deal breaker. Happy to stick with my current supplier once I get a quote for storage I can do the maths on potential savings.
