I was somewhat amazed to learn that tens of thousands of appliances in the UK are controlled by signals phase-modulated onto the low frequency carrier wave used for broadcasting BBC Radio 4 Long Wave! 🤯

Back in the 60’s, 70’s & 80’s we used Economy 7 to reduce bills through off-peak electricity. It was a sensible, popular idea in a more sensible age. Today my #energy company doesn’t even offer it to new customers. Instead they send me a meaningless messgage with a chart to #nudge me. If ever there was an example of dumb politicans and greedy businesses pushing us backwards, this is it.
#Economy7 Energy bills rise for 2.5 million homes on Economy 7 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-64332617

It looks like all #energybills customers on an #Economy7 tariff have seen a price rise of 11% on electricity today.
This is unacceptable and for those who use electric heating it is dangerous.
@hmtreasury must extend “off grid” support to all electric heating customers now.
As we explained to @ClaudiaLizaTV today, if you’re on an #Economy7 tariff you should:
▶️ contact your #energy firm. A change in @ofgem price cap means you may not be on the cheapest tariff
📝 write to your MP & ask them to get @beisgovuk to say why they allowed this price hike.
"Our electricity bills keep going up and while others who are ‘off the gas grid’ have had extra government support, we haven’t."
We have asked @beisgovuk to respond to reports from customers on #Economy7 tariffs that they face price rises in January.
Just been notified that due to #Government changes to the #EnergyPriceGuarantee my #Economy7 tariff will be increasing by 8% in January. #EnergyCrisis #CostOfLiving #CostOfLivingCrisis
@MartinLewis are you aware?

9.4kWh of #solar electricity here in Glasgow today. In December. 😲 Nice... 😎
Also now on #Economy7 so the 29kWh of consumption you see was charged at 18.53p. Some was used overnight and some charged the #batteries. The remainder of the day up until midnight will be on the higher 39.95p rate, however taking into account solar and low rate charging (and some efficiency losses) I'll save about £5.70 today assuming 45kWh total. (Remember I have a #HeatPump which is why electricity use is high)
