£310 for gas and electric. It's the gas costs which make up the majority of that.
How much were your energy bills for the last couple of months?

Gas
Electric agile, unit average.
Includes standing charges, some export data is missing.
How come you're not on gas tracker?
Sore subject I think
Same as dlockers yes. Didn't want to risk both supplies spiking in price. Softened by octopus giving me some credit for my smart meter woes anyway.Sore subject I think

About £80 a month for electric, for a flat, mostly heating and its only on when absolutely necessary. No gas supply.

Exported - 2264kwhs
Imported - 1210kwhs
Gas - 9087kwhs….

Nov 23 - 765.00kWh - £119.75
Dec 23 - 726.82kWh - £123.71
Jan 24 - 874.17kWH - £144.19
All Electric (No Gas) on Octopus Go with two EV's (So effectively our Elec and Fuel bill for each month).
Would be lower but had a couple of EV charges on peak rates due to messing up timings and relatively inefficient heating (being fixed when we reno the house + add Solar / Batteries).

I'm comparing pre-COVID, COVID itself and post-COVID when the rates went up to give a larger picture.
1-bed semi with just myself, loft insulation, dual-fuel with Scottish Power. Attitude to climate not really changed as I've had air conditioning since 2013 and I skipped the CFL bulb generation, going from incandescent bulbs to LEDs early on.
- pre-COVID - £66/month, fixed. Worked at work base 5 days a week.
- during COVID - £90/month, fixed. This factored in teleworking 5 days a week.
- post-COVID - £174/month, variable. This factored in teleworking 3 days and at work base 2 days.
- now - £150/month, variable. Same 3:2 working arrangement as above.

Our direct debit has gone to £125pcm which we think will average out quite well across the year.
