No obsessing here.

Re: Smart Meters
 

I have been away in the lakes this weekend with the boss lady :). We were celebrating our 40 year wedding anniversary, I still dont know how she has put up with over the years. We have just got back and i have 5% battery charge in the car. I was going to put it on charge straight away until i saw the rates for tonight and tomorrow. They will be paying me to charge my car after midnight so that will be 38KWh of charge @-2.2p . It's a win win for me :)

If you dont want to save money, thats fine, but some people like to [where its practical to do so].

Very true, storms generally equal a lot of wind, hence wind generation rockets, and prices go down.

Missed out on my Free Greggs Bacon Roll!

Re: Smart Meters
 

Managed to grab the Free breakfast Roll and Drink from Greggs, so looks like it's a Tesco shop first thing in the morning.

Well tomorrow is not looking good for Agile (or Tracker I guess).

The agile rate is over SVT for 12 hours, I've not seen it that bad before, its going to be one of those days that costs more.
On the bright side, more wind appears to be around from Thursday onwards, so it should drop again, and make up the 'loss'.

Re: Smart Meters
 

I'm starting to question what tariff I'll end up on when my Tracker ends in April, but for now Tracker is cheaper for me.

Re: Smart Meters
 

Agile tends to look bad in winter. In April winter will be long over and agile will look more favourable again.

Re: Smart Meters
 

Wind can also cut off large chunks of the network for days, which depresses demand at a time when it's in abundance.

Re: Smart Meters
 

It may sometimes cause failures in places, but "large chunks of the network for days" ? I think not, unless you have evidence otherwise.

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

As expected, the abundance of wind [power] has driven the prices down for the last few days.
This has made up for the two previous poor days, so overall in December I'm back in the "green".

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

Absolute massacre of a price tomorrow.

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

33.26 on my Tracker it is the worst I've ever seen.

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

The base line price is equal to the previous days peak

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

Ouch yes, I saw it earlier, a very expensive day. Come back wind ..... :angel:
