EDF prices changes 15/08/2009
It's just come to my notice that EDF have
adjusted their tariffs as of 15/08/2009.
The
major change that I can see is that the unit cost (kWh) has been
tinkered with. Previously, the very smallest size supply you could have
(3kVA/15 amps) had a high unit cost (around 13 cents as I recall), but
it is now gone down to 0,1078 € TTC*.
Before
the changes all other supplies were then charged at the same basic unit
cost. However, the next smallest supply (6kVA/30 amps) has seen a
reduction to 0,1081€ TTC, whereas every size on up from there are now at
0,1125 € TTC.
Also of
note is that the daytime (Heures Pleines) rate used to be the same as
the basic rate, but this is now slightly higher, at 0,1154 € TTC (off
peak, Heures Creuses, is set at 0,0734 € TTC).
Obviously,
all the standing charges have increased too, by around 2% if the note in
my last electricity bill is anything to go by. For the "horse's mouth"
on all this click on "EDF Tarifs - basic & off peak" in the "Useful
links" menu on the left.
Maybe
we should all look at these increased costs as a further push towards
making ourselves more energy efficient. Now, I really must go & get that
solar water heating project finished......
