Have I missed something? This is way lower than the cap. It’s only around a 10% increase.

and despite calorific value of gas it's conversion to usable heat (conduction/convection in exhaust gases) is less efficient than using electricity - hence it's cheaper.Gas is so much cheaper per kWh
Seems very generous. That's about 60% of the current cap with a further significant increase expected in October.
Which energy supplier and what's the name of the tariff?
Never had gasThis has always been the case
British Gas “HomeEnergy Secure May 2023”.
carbon neutral gas and 100% renewable electric.
I was expecting the cap to increase in October and then again in April.
I am completely perplexed, everyone has been saying “don’t fix, don’t fix” but a 10% increase is a fraction of that I was expecting. The price cap variable tariff is over double what I am paying now.
Got the email today and it’s also on my account ready to be accepted. Although due to the solar installation this week I will probably pick a more expensive tariff on paper but with a much lower standing charge.
The fix presumably expires in May 2023, the fact it's referred to as a two year fix shows you it's an old one. As they're still letting you have it for some reason I'd probably snatch their hand off. How are you going to get a cheaper tariff even based just on the standing charge?
another fixed deal has a much lower standing charge but a cost of around 25p/KWh, so the maths with solar PV should make this better.
look on mse british gas renewal thread - other people had received the same it's believed to be an error / a gift horse.- it's forum is like hotuk for energy.Got the email today and it’s also on my account ready to be accepted.

Tsunami was caused by an earthquake lol
And you believe that Tsunami's occur in every country after an earthquake? Sorry but that's not how it works.
The Fukushima nuclear disaster was a 2011 nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Ōkuma, Fukushima, Japan. The proximate cause of the disaster was the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami that occurred 11 March 2011.
He didn't say eathquakes always cause tsunamis, you invented that bit...they can, and do cause tsunamis, not always depending on a lot of factors BUT the earthquake did cause the tsunami in this case...

I've no problem with nuclear power as long as its modern up to code technology and is updated during its life cycle.
Whether I'd trust our government not to build them on the cheap fr the lowest bidder is another matter!
How can you so badly miss the point?
The claim was that nuclear isn't safe because of earthquakes equivalent to heavy traffic, the reality is that Fukushima did not melt down despite many earthquakes, it melted down because of a Tsunami which isn't a risk in many countries with earthquakes. Good grief the level of spoonfeeding required on this forum is outstanding.
