Sobering thought that. I thought EVs were pollution free & the electricity magically made itself. Someone somewhere is making a shedload of cash. The cap I understood from the Beeb is based purely on gas prices i.e. it assumes the cost / kWh of electricity made from a generation plant run on gas. Why oh why then aren't we seeing a discount if like me you buy supposedly 100% renewable power implying no gas is used? I thought renewables are well over a third of our power generation & their generation costs should be static / not rising as fast as gas.
Also the power companies are paying peanuts now for PV solar on the FIT tarrif. I get £0.0741 per kWh and they sell it at £0.52. Whichever person the new PM is I hope they get a grip on this rip off.
When you sell your house or your car, do you sell them at the best price you can get in the market or at what they cost you? Why do you expect any businessman to think differently?
