There were free chargers (11kw/h) a 5 min walk from my house which I benefitted from for c.6 months (I spent about £50 charging in those 6 months and that’s at about 28p kw/h)…then they stopped working.
For some reason rather than look for an EV tariff in Feb this year I locked in at about 28p kw/h, I guess at the time I was still getting a free charge. Driving was working out at about 8p per mile in the summer but I’d still drive to an office for a free charge every couple of weeks. I’m sure in 2023 when I was looking at EV tariffs, you were penalised with quite a high daytime electricity rate for a lower rate over night, so being a perm. WFH-er, I didn’t engage.
Shocked to realise when I finally sorted an EV tariff this week that it’s 23p kw/h outside of “cheap” hours so that’s 25% cheaper than I was paying before even at peak times.
Of about £120 a month I was spending on electric, £100 was for my car. That should come down to about £30 now. Happy days.
