I was just checking my expected electricity bill and compared Southern Electric's tariffs for standard domestic consumption (11.51p a unit in my area) against their Economy 7 Night Rate (5.06p), i.e. a lot cheaper.
So I was wondering, does it cost to have an additional meter and what could I do with the cheaper electricity? I have no night storage heaters. Are they worth getting? I do have oil-filled electric radiators for a couple of rooms just to take the chill off and they are very effective. I could get more.
I'm just thinking about the horrendous rise in domestic oil prices and trying to look for alternative methods of heating for the future, at least until I can eventually move to a house with a chimney and start burning wood.
