Maybe my solar panels are actually making a big difference to my bill after all

And you can take off the government help that comes in too. And so will your customers.

No government help announced for commercial accounts. No cap either.

[Jonny 87]

We were £140 combined gas and electric, now paying £301 as of next month. 🤦‍♂️

I don't know what that means so I'll just go ahead assume it's a compliment. Someone who understands how maths works? Probably.

If any of you guys can afford solar panels, it’s definitely worth it, go for as many as you can possibly fit on your roof. Mine are 10 years old now and new combi boiler last year.

Do you have batteries for storage? We have solar panels but the power is sold direct to the grid, but even so our electric usage is only £10 more than yours. Are yours not on a feed in tariff?

Yeah I’m on the original F.I.T. (About 61p per unit of electric we export?) , no batteries as I didn’t think they were needed . I live in a 3 bed semi (4 people) , south facing garden, 3kw system  . My hob & oven is electric though

[Jay Le Huray]

I'm not really worried about the situation, so far I have only lost 1 customer saying they have to make cutbacks but the same week I gained another 3 jobs which more than made up for the loss.

We only moved into our house a year ago and the panels were already there. My understanding is that we don't use any of the electric we generate, but it all goes straight to EON. Is that the same with you? We're on the original tariff too.

Our last FIT payment was £440 so not too bad. I expect the next one to be a bit higher. I guess we get our electric for about nothing in the end. Hob and oven electric too as we've no gas in the village.

Yeah I’m with Eon too for the FIT, I think you do actually use some of the electric you generate and get paid for the excess that goes to the grid. On a very sunny day , my smart meter says currently using £0.00 , so it’s best to have your washing machine , oven etc on through the day instead of in the evening. My June payment was £573, my next payment as of today is around £564 (will be more by the time I take my reading) which will be paid in September. I usually get around £1500 a year back in feed in tariff payments.
When solar first came out , electricity meters were actually running backwards instead of stopping when the sun came out and caused loads of problems when giving meter readings, iv never took much notice of other peoples bills before but it’ll be interesting to see how ours compares to others over the next year.

[zesty]

We were £140 combined gas and electric, now paying £301 as of next month. 🤦‍♂️

Without our log burner, we’d be paying around £400 plus.

Currently £100 a month because we only use the gas to heat the hot water.

Best thing I ever did was get a big fat log burner installed. It’s really gonna make a difference for us!

[NWH]

Yeah we’ve had our burner for nearly 10 years wouldn’t ever be without one again,had a couple of bricks replaced last week and a sweep the waiting list for an installation is next May 😂.

[zesty]

The price has shot up as well, mega money to have one installed now!

[alank]

Wouldn't be without ours can even boil a kettle and cook on it

Does your log burner heat the whole house?

I have one but find it only heats the front room, which we use for about an hour a day. Doesn’t heat any of the bedrooms which is where we spend most of the time (Mon-fri anyway)

It will depend on the layout of the house years ago we only had a wood burner to heat a two bedroom bungalow it was an 8 kw and it was to hot in every room  had to open the windows to let heat out , seams strange to spend most of the time in the bedrooms ?  You also need to work out what it will cost you for logs it might not be a cost effective option for you , also if you live in a smokeless control area you might not be able to have one . But they are a very good source of heat much better heat than gas or oil central heating
