£0.03/kWh to £0.18/kWh.

Yes the number overall is tiny - but it still means that whatever I used to spend on heating/hot water, is now 6x higher.

Damn what tariff are you on? My gas is currently 7.34p/kWh with Octopus.

I'm with octopus. 7.34p/kWh is their flexible tariff, 18p/kWh is their fixed deal at the moment. My old 3p/kWh just expired and I'm not risking the price increasing even further, so I think the fixed deal is still the right way to go, even though it means increasing my price 6x right now.

Ditto EDF. Is op mixing up kWh and m3 perhaps?

No I'm not. The current fixed deal with Octopus here in UK is 18.53p/kWh + 48p/day as standing charge.

Ahh sorry, I was mixing up £ and p for some reason!

I’m guessing geopolitics is affecting your price. I’m paying 0.045 USD per kWh in for natural gas here in the US, including all fees.
